Gadget Names

25 Nov 2008

When Bluetooth file-sharing became a standard for mobile phones, I didn't want to name my phone with my own name like most people do. At the time, I just finished reading the trilogy of The Lord of the Rings so I named it after one of the lesser known protagonists: Imrahil. After that, I got to the habit of naming my gadgets. There's no common source for the names. I just name them with whatever comes to mind. Here's the list:

  1. Motorola V3i - Imrahil
  2. Olympus C-350 Zoom - Dolon
  3. Compaq Presario V3218TU - Adrahil
  4. Sony PlayStation Portable 2000 - ParSniP
  5. Samsung F480 - Tocco Schermo
  6. IPod Shuffle - Yuffie

If I had bought an IPhone, I would have named it PersIPhone.

Tocco is the official commercial name from Samsung. It is the Italian for 'touch'. I gave mine a last name. Schermo is the Italian for 'screen'. :p
