Default Naming Your Bike

Has anyone else out there named their bike? I know I can't be the only one. I know of one other guy who has an old Shovelhead he named Nadine. I never have found out why he named her that, though. When I got my Street Bob I immediately named her Monique. That was the name of my first love, this is my first Harley. I figured it was fitting.What have you named your bike, and why?

Mine is also named Nadine - just fits her personality -a true 'dirty girl' ! Last bike was named Erica; Scottish for 'a powerful ruler'

Visitation..............

I'm a minister, so if someone calls the house Vicki can tell them that "He's out on Visitation"

Good enough?
