Don't name your bass...That's childish.

Not to mention, if you need someone else to think of a name for you then the bass doesn't mean enough to you to have a name yet anyway. Naming basses is childish.

If you name a musical instrument you must. . .

A) Think up the name yourself
B) Don't tell anyone





edit: if you have one of these however i think "Kate" would be appropriate.

If that's the whole of its story, I don't think any name would be fun and meaningful.

Only name a bass if it deserves to be named. If you need to start a thread about it, it doesn't need a name.

This is McChocolatey. McChocolatey deserves a name, as McChocolatey's varnish looks like beautiful chocolate.

What??? Username plays double? You just got a lot cooler. Nice color by the way, always wanted a darker bass. 3/4?

I usually name mine after my most recent ex, or someone that has really influenced me lately, or a movie quote. Something that compelled me at the time.

My current one is nameless right now. If I named it after any of the above it would have to be "(expletive) we broke up so quit texting me at 3 am!" OR it would be called Daphne, because that name has stuck to me for a bit, but I don't remember quite where I heard it.
