None of them. I don't refer to them as females, either. I have a life.

Not yet.
My bike has a name, and it took nearly 2 years to name it.
Still haven't thought of one for the X6M.
Something German though is where I'm thinking.

My wife names everything. Sometimes she'll be talking about someone and i have to stop her as ask, wtf is Lola? She looks at me as if i'm a complete idiot and says, my phone...

Serously like all her cars, bikes, phones, GPS, bike computers.... I don't really get into it but i think if the names are cool and unique i can go with it.

Her cars: Max the Mini Countryman, Sampson the Jeep, Rocket the F150, Big Blue the full size Bronco, Tonka the 66 bronco that was temperamental, Mr Tonka the 66 Bronco that was badass.
Bikes: SR Speedy (AKA SR71) the old race bike, Q the road bike, Professor Banner the new race bike, (yes it has hulk green accents on it) Dirty Girl, her mountain bike and she named my mountain bike Brutus.
Phone: Lola
GPS: Ian because he has a British accent.

There is more, but those are all the names of inanimate objects that i can keep up with.

My M3 is named ///Mistress. She is high maintenance and costs a fortune but she gives me the best rides and I spent all my free time having weekend get-a-ways with her so calling her my mistress works.

Good one.

I on the other hand, do not name any of my gadgets except for my Windows computer and iMac which forces me to name them.

I guess I do have a name for the X6M actually. I've been referring to her as the DadMobile (tm) for some time now. I think it has stuck, so therefore it is.

My Diavel (listed in the garage) is Sammael.

My wrangler is either "baby" or "god dammit" depending on how temperamental it feels when I'm driving it.

I have a habbit of naming my toys after their respective color...

1995 Dark Blue Honda Accord Dubbed "Midnight"
2002 Red Acura MDX Dubbed "Merlot"
2009 Sapphire Black BMW X6 Dubbed "Obsidianna"
2011 White Suzuki GSX-R Dubbed "pearl"
2012 Red/White BMW S1000RR Dubbed "Scarlette"

The blades in my sword collection are the only other things that I am guilty of naming other than my modes of transportation, lol

My car is "The Rocket Sled".
My Wife's Suburban is "The Mother Ship".
Like: "How much gear do you have? Can we take the rocket sled, or will we need the mother ship?".

I do talk to my car, but I just call it "car".
"Good morning Car. Ready to go to work?"
"Who wants new tires? You do, don't cha?" (Like I'm giving a dog a biscuit.)

Oh. And I pat it on the head when I get out after a fun drive. Well, they're all fun.

My Santorin blue S4 was "Blue Steel." Had planned on "Magnum" when I was getting a blue S3, a la Zoolander's second look. Not sure on 235 yet.

My brother called his grey 911 "Grey Wolf." He sucked a large bird into the air intake on the way to work one day, garage guys pointed it out to him and he responded, "the wolf's gotta eat. Clean that up for me pls"
