You know you can name house phones? What do you call yours?
Ours are Amy and Sheldon

Raj and Cinnamon. No, not really. Why would you name phones?

+1. Never named a phone. Never understood why.

Mine default to "Handset 1" and "Handset 2" on the displays. Needless to say I've never felt the urge to change them. We named the kids and the cat and dog but nothing else, not even the fishes; although the aquarium pump was given a few names when it died at the weekend. The computers have simple network names but we don't refer to them as such.

I'm a geek and I like to change things. When Virgin updated my internet at home recently and I asked for access to change the name and password of the wifi the lad was stunned "No-one has ever asked me that before" I suppose you all keep your USB fobs names the same too

That's more like it! I should rename mine "My neighbours hate me" but I won't antagonise them any more than I already do just by breathing! Haha
