My 2002 Black Savage is called "Special Ed." He was always a boy, right from the start, and the story of his name goes like this....
ED is in my license plate; he's my first bike, and therefore my learning and starter bike; when I first got him, I bobble-dropped the poor boy several times
yet nary a scratch on him.
In a similar bike naming thread on the old BeginnerBikes.com forum, a fellow whose screen name is T Tex came up with it after hearing the above details, and I loved it.
I even had a little leather band embossed with his name, and it's across the front of the risers, over my EZPass tag. I ought to take a picture and post it!
