Even though my Kindle has the name "the Great A'Tuin," I think of it as "my Kindle" and consider it gender neutral.

I know what you mean about lots of people with your name.....Laura had to have been one of those #1 names in 59/60 's.  In my high school home room besides myself there were 4 other Laura's.  My parents pronounced my name  Lawrah not Lorah talk about a hassel.

I hear ya... I know way too many Brittanys my age! And people who spell it all kinds of crazy ways... Brittknee, Britni... blegh.

I haven't named my Kindle, but I do refer to it as Digital Crack.

People might want to rethink referring to their Kindle as "BOB".  Around here the acronym stands for ahem, "battery operated boyfriend".  A person could get some funny looks for saying "let me go grab my BOB, be right back".

Digital Crack - I love it!  lmao
