    Mine is (still) "2º Kindle de César" and I was wondering how our imaginative readers named their devices.

    If you don't have one, but want to give a suggestion, you are welcome too.

    My first candidate is "A Biblioteca de Babel" (The Library of Babel) from a short story by Jorge Luis Borges (1944). Another candidate is my phone number so if it's found by someone they can return it to me (if they want to).

    I have a Nook, not a Kindle, but, funny coincidence, I named it The Book of Sand after another Borges story.

    I do not own a Kindle.

    My devices are all very originally auto-named VBS's Phone, VBS's PC, VBS's Android device, etc.

    Ai-chan doesn't own a kindle, so Ai-chan is quite confused. Kindles have names?

    It's weird, but they do have names. But you can call them all day and night they won't answer you, no matter what. Not saying anything about someone calling an e-reader day and night...
