That is great about your daughter! I have never seen a pink violin - that must raise a few eyebrows! But good for her - if it keeps her happy and playing, that's a good thing. And I love individualists!

Yeah, Rosa works for me!

I just call em the other loves in my life. I had a game with my lovely wife naming our 3 kids.


Now when I talk to God he said he'd understand, Stick by me I'll be your guiding hand. But don't ask me what I think of you. I might not give the answer you want me to.

I haven't named any of mine yet - if a name for any one or all of them strikes me at some point I wouldn't have any problem with it, but I'm not going to force it.

My firends hate my Blue Squier and they call it TORMENTOR !!!!! ...because sometimes is a pain in the @.... and the lack of the 22 freet.


However, I adore my cheap guitar.....

I've got a MIM Strat called Debbie and a Tanglewood TW15 called Sally. Less-favoured guitars (a Freshman 12-string electro-acoustic, a Variax 300 and a Yamaha classical) don't get named.

I asked my brother if he had a name for his Seagull. He said he hadn't but it sounded like a good idea so he'd think about it. A couple of weeks later, he came up with Stringy. Hmm.

I have heard the Keith Richard names all his guitars with girl's names, and they must all begin with "M". If I remember rightly, his current (at the time) was Marilyn.

Incidentally, last year I went to a book signing by Terry Pratchett and I asked Him to sign the book for Clare and Jenny (my proper daughters) and also Debbie and Sally. Initially, He called me tight-fisted for not buying a second book, but when I explained who Debbie and Sally were, He asked one of the shop assistants to make sure that I was escorted off the premises.

*Two* insults from PTerry in one conversation must be worth a tee-shirt??!
