That's a great name.
For those who haven't read it, Neal Stephenson's
The Diamond Age has an advanced Kindle of sorts called the Young Lady's Illustrated Primer. The code name for the book in the novel was Runcible, and when Amazon chose code names for the Kindle 1 and 2 (I don't know about the DX) they used names of characters from the novel.
I think I'll name my Kindle
Nell, the main character from the novel.
