I have to confess to this rather strange behavior.
My first really classic machine, a HP2114A, had a sticker on its front
panel that has apparently been
left there by some vistor on an ancient tour.
It read 'Hi, I'm Henry', so that machine became known as Henry, and most
all of my subsequent HP machines got related names (like my first 2116
becaome O'Henry, etc.). The one exception to this rule was my first
2113, apparently inhabited by gremlins, earned the name 'Demon Child'.
But now that I have a small pile of spare CPU's, I've stopped naming them.
