I like to name mine. My K4B is "Lil Black" and my PW is "Schneeweisschen".
As somewhat of a tribute to my family, I've been using a couple German names for my devices:

PW: Mein Nachtlicht

Nexus: Mein Roboter

Is that the proper usage of "mein"?

^ yes
"mein" for masculine and neuter nouns (das Licht, der Roboter)
"meine" for female nouns, like "meine Party" (die Party)


PS: You live in a town called HADES town?! Like, underworld town?!

Thank you! It's good to know I was getting those right.

Hadestown could be considered a fancy way of saying Louisville, Kentucky, but it's also a decent album by Anais Mitchell.

Bubble gum, cotton candy, rainbow and pretty in pink would be good names as well!
