I'm just wondering if anyone here has given their horn a name besides me.

Nah. It's my personality that comes through the horn if anything. It doesn't need one of it's own.

My mellophone has a name, but I forget. One of the fellow mellophone players named it for me, she wouldn't leave me alone until it was named. Theres a few other I know of who name their instruments..
just wondering, but what did you name yours?

When it doesn't work, it shares the same names the computer/ truck/ table saw etc are given when thay don't work properly... But Mark wouldn't permit any of those names to remain on this board.

Because I'm so devoted to music people often ask me if I name my instruments. I told them yah. I actually did almost the same thing as David Kinder, I named my Bb "Clar" and my A clarinet "Anet"

My plastic clarinet is Benny, after the great Benny Goodman. My wooden clarinet is Albert (because it's an Allegro, and it doesn't seem like an Al). The contralto was called Lawny for awhile, but now it's simply known as Contra. The bass clarinet player named her's Mini-Contra.

My R13 Bb is Jeremy, my R13 A is James, and my plastic Selmer is Jay Jay. So I have Jerry, Jimmy & Jay. I call my saxophone The Untitled One. A couple of my friends have names for their instruments too: Bari Sax , Jewel; Trombone, Jeffrey; those are the only two I remember, but yeah, we tend to name our intruments in our band. It just seems right. <|:o)

My marching horn is named Frito, because it smells funny. And my pretty pretty Buffet is named Bessie, like an old shot gun. I should have named it Buffy, though, for practicality.

I have dubbed the Eb clarinet I use from my school "Eddie The Eefer."
We decided that it was the love child of my friend's clarinets Jean-Paul (the Bb) and Annette (theA).
I personally don't have a name for my Bb, except for "my baby"

My teacher's clarinet was called Hermy which I always thought was hysterical and I called my old B&H clarinet Rudolf. My new clarinet and tenor horn remain unnamed but they don't seem to care.

Let's see, I named my plastic student model "Clarence" when I was about 12. The alto I played in high school was "Alex" and the bass was "Sebastian." I have no names for my current bass and alto, though my Toyota Corolla is named "Calyx," which may provoke a chuckle from the botanically minded folks.
