Stolen from one of my female co-workers:

“Anything that leaves you flat on your back, looking up at the sky asking ‘what just happened to me?’ deserves a female name.”
 
C'mon guys, I'm no rock star and my little "Magnus" has better curves than many of the girls I knew in college-and they all had names.. can't remember them but I know I called them something- not Das Girl :-)
 
My Buddy names all my cars whether I want him to or not. He calls my Coupe Idaho (where I got it) and this one is American Girl
 
I've got two names for mine, neither feminine: Turd Ferguson (It's Siennabraun and I am huge fan of the "Jeopardy" skits on Saturday Night Live); or, Ron Burgandy's Mustache (again, the color).
 
Name

I was fortunate, Murray Fowler named mine The Virgin, then we found one screw that had been replaced, and Murray stated, one bad screw and you are no longer a virgin. It stuck!
 
Stan, I don't know; The Great White, Sharp looking, vicious, will turn on a dime and rip you to pieces, sounds pretty "lady-like" to me :-)
