Pepeng, the walkman phone (and other gadget names)

December 23rd, 2005 | by ka edong |

I have a good friend, EL. She told me she was buying a new cellphone. Thus I shared to EL one of my eccentricities: I name my gadgets.

  • Brosia is my Smart Phone. Her full name is Brosia Almighty. She got her name after I dropped her at an MRT station and she came off scott free. She’s such a powerful phone that I call her Brosia Almighty.
  • Kurdapia is my Toshiba Satellite laptop. She was a gift from my friend. We bought her “pre-owned”. I named Kurdapia after my minamahal. Maya’s mama sometimes calls Maya “Kurdapia” – a pet name.
  • By the way, I had a pet plant at my old office which I named Puring. Thanks to my officemate, Katch, for the name.

And so my friend EL buys her Sony Ericsson W800i, a goodlooking orange walkman phone. And she introduces me to her cellphone:

“Meet Pepeng. Short for Prospero Labuyo. Prospero for a prosperous year, Labuyo as homage to my province of Bicol.”

What are your gadgets’ names?
