When Bluetooth file-sharing became a standard for mobile phones, I didn't want to name my phone with my own name like most people do. At the time, I just finished reading the trilogy of The Lord of the Rings so I named it after one of the lesser known protagonists: Imrahil. After that, I got to the habit of naming my gadgets. There's no common source for the names. I just name them with whatever comes to mind. Here's the list:
- Motorola V3i - Imrahil
- Olympus C-350 Zoom - Dolon
- Compaq Presario V3218TU - Adrahil
- Sony PlayStation Portable 2000 - ParSniP
- Samsung F480 - Tocco Schermo
- IPod Shuffle - Yuffie
If I had bought an IPhone, I would have named it PersIPhone.
