My last car was called the "Kushti Rauni" which is Rom for "Good lady", and she was a good car while she lasted.

My current PC is always known as "Plastic Friend" though this one's network name is "Marvin has 2 Brains" as it has a dual  processor.

My boarder called the DVD remote control "Frank".

I've been researching for Tales of the Galli, in which I'm currently telling the myth of Cybele and Attis. Anyway, I was looking up Attis and found an entry for Attis under Baby Name Guesser. It had the following text:

When naming your baby Attis, it's important to consider the gender of the name itself. When people look at the name Attis, they might ask the question, "is Attis a man or a woman?", or "what is the gender of the name Attis?" Some names are more gender neutral than others, and some names are more strongly associated with either males or females.

Who else can see some humour in this (very definitely an "in joke")?
