Pipes with names? Do you name yours?

[tokerpipes]

I was wondering, hoping I am not weird, if any of you folks name your pipes? I know some name the pipe after the maker or model of the pipe, but what about a name you give your pipe?

 

[morlader]

Just makers name for me.

 

[jameral]

Interesting...never occurred to me to name my pipes. I used to, in my late teen years, give names to my guns but not anymore.

Well like I got Trusty. Recieved from my grandfather as his old estate pipe. It doesnt matter what kind of tobacco is packed i only have to light it once. Perfect cake, no defects and almost 80 years old.

 

[docrx]

No

I describe a pipe I'm talking about by brand, line, and shape...
Example: Charatan's Make Executive 1/4 bent Dublin
Naming pipes, IMNSHO opinion, is what DRUGGIES do.

I ask this because my grandfather nemed several of his very old pipes that he always smoked. Thats why Trusty has kept the same name. I havent done the wacky since college. I was just thinking this morning as i was finish a bowl of Mac Berens Vanilla Cream in Trusty and was just wondering.

 

[ace57]

I don't.

 

[dervis]

I dont but my wife does. My pipes have been named, Ugly, Less Ugly, Most Ugly.

 

[olderthandirt]

I've only named one of mine.

A small dublin, may have been a BBB. When I got the thing it was covered in what looked like a very fine spray-on insulation. Kind of like what is used for texturing walls.

It was fuzzy to the touch so that particular pipe I refer to as "Ol' Fuzzy" Cleaned up well and it smokes Kendals Kentucky as though it was made for just that blend.
And no, not that it really matters but to prove a point, I'm not a

DRUGGIES

Every once in a while I name one problem is I can't remember the names

 

[tslex]

[jchaplick]

I just received a boswell pipe the other day from one of my freinds, it is like a nosewarmer,, but not quite that short, my friend has named it stubby so it kind of stuck, no that pipe is known as stubby.
Other than that, no names for me

 

[dienne]

I can't remember people's name and have more than 40 pipes. It could be funny.....

[kcvet67]

[philip]

My pipes are like friends and do have their own personalities, but since they don't talk to me they don't get names.

 

[logandow]
