Hi everyone! I just received an iPod (40GB, regular) as a present. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I should name it?

Thanks,

Norm

You never watched Cheers?!

Vera was the wife of Norm, but the entire run of the show, she was never seen on-screen.

Oh yeah. No thanks.

He didn't have the greatest relationship to his wife anyway.

I've always been fond of Bluto, from Animal House.

"Jali" or "Griot" are both used to refer to the musical companions that sang to/of hunters of long, long ago (the tradition still exists today in Africa). A fitting name for a little musical companion that follows you on your journeys.

Call it Mogo perhaps? Is the name of a grey towel mouse that my girlfriend's brother likes to molest.

When you first hook up your iPod to a computer, iTunes asks you what you'd like to name your iPod. I just thought it would be a little nicer to name it something besides just 'Norm's iPod'.
