I'm feeling silly. Best "nicknames" for Your bass?

I put together a Warmoth "Jaguar" with Curtis Novak's incredible bisonics. I put them in the positions of the classic Guild Starfire. I call it the Jagfire (it's really an unbelievably sounding bass!). I also put together a short scale on a Strat body. That's the Stratobasstard. I play that when I'm feeling lazy, or my chops are less than ideal.

I guess they aren't too "silly" but only a handful of mine have names. This bird's eye maple Roscoe I call "Birdie":

And "Birdie's" twin sister in buckeye burl I call "Buckie":

The custom viola bass I had to call "Viola":

My Drummer had never seen a Reverend Bass before, So my first Reverend (The orange one), he named "The Rev"...and it stuck. :thumbsup:
The Turquoise one is too new to be named...But together they are definitely a pair of aces. :bassist:

Not the most inventive with names, but of the ones I've named, these stuck:

-Black CV 70's P: "Sexy Black"

-Black Wick Rockbass Corvette: "Vetta"

-Blue Wick Streamer LX: "Flo"

-Honeyburst SBMM Ray34: "Hunny" ( :facepalm: )

** Didn't name the natural Squier JV or the silver TRBX304.
 
I bought a Lake Placid Blue Jazz Bass. I’m a Senior in High School, and when one of my Freshman friends saw it, she excitedly named it “Jasmine”. Won’t let me call it anything else.

She also named my Modulus Quantum 4, which has a purple-y color, “Violet”.

I just call them “the Jazz Bass” and “my Nice One” respectively.
