I'm leaning toward "Nelly." Nelly the Necchi. As in "Whoa, Nelly!" (She
gets away from me sometimes.)

No names for my sewing machines, although I call them sweet nothings
when they purr and call them ..... um, yeah, what Amy said .... when
they misbehave. But I do have a blanket that has a name. My sister
sent me this incredible fake fur cover 5 or 6 years ago. It's the
expensive kind that really feels real and the backing is suede. So
soft, so warm, so cozy and gorgeous. And had to have a name.
Gwendolyn. Gwendolyn is put away when warm weather arrives, and just
last week I asked my DH to please bring Gwendolyn in for my cold feet
on the sofa. Everybody in the house knows Gwendolyn's name. Their
friends know who Gwendolyn is. And everybody knows Gwendolyn is the
warmest thing in the house. So on any cool evening (or afternoon or
morning) it's not surprising to find one of us snuggled up in bed with
Gwendolyn.

My sister has a sable mink coat. Naturally it is known a Syble. The
hat to go with it is Sibling...

Several of mine have names. Not all...
Mrs Alexandria Jones: a 1907 Jones family CS hand crank with Princess
Alexandria decals...
Spinning Jenny: a 1923 Singer 66K with lotus pattern decals, so named by
my bro when I bought it in 1976... 'Kate, that's as old as the Spinning
Jenny!' (Not quite, but the name stuck!)
Jane: My 'Plain Jane' very low-key decals set treadle Singer 15-80.
Real work horse machine, this. Plain and simple!
Lily: the Husqvarna Lily 550.
Bernie: Bernina 1150MDA serger.
'Nina: Bernina 1005 sewing machine, names by the kids I work with.
Brother John: The Brother 1034D serger, named after my bro.
FrankenSinger: Singer 99K cobbled together out of the bits of at least 3
machines after an accident with a crane, a ship, and a long journey in
1964...
Fairy: The 221 Singer Featherweight. Fairy sized.
The dress dummies all have names too!
