What’s the most unusual thing you’ve ever named?

Updated Tue Jul 29 2014

A question over in the forums about naming vehicles inspired this week’s Question of the Week: What’s the most unusual thing you’ve ever named?

A car or a cabin?

A dog or a cat….or maybe a pet rat, snake, or lizard? Or maybe you named the squirrels who regularly raid your bird feeder, or the little orange lizards you used to catch and race when you were a kid.

A doll or a stuffed animal? A fictional character, or a body part?

What’s the most unusual thing you’ve ever named, what did you name it, and why?
