Mine is named Fiona after the character in the movie The Secret of Roan Inish. I made a cover for my Kindle from an old book of Irish poetry so I thought I'd give her an Irish name!
After seeing all these awesome names I've decided to rename mine TARDIS (after Dr Who) because its bigger on the inside & takes me to millions of different adventures in millions of different worlds.
I don't have a name for my Kindle, but my husband calls it my Mastercard because I never leave home without it!
After seeing all these creative names I've decided to rename my kindle Sherlock because he knows everything. Also because my phone is already named TARDIS and that would just be awkward.
Paperwhite=Leslie's Precious. Plain Kindle=Leslie's TARDIS. Not even trying to copy anybody but those are the first names I thought of and they're perfect.
I'm having trouble naming my new Kindle Fire. Sold the old one and upgraded to the HD but am drawing a blank for a new name :(
I have two kindle Fires. The first is called Flame, the second is called Ember. I plan on getting a Kindle Fire HD and am thinking of names a long the same line like: Blaze, Bryne (old English for fire), Coal, or Timber.

I feel very ordinary and boring right now.

I have three Kindles. My original K3 was named Fizzy until I got a Kindle Touch. The K3 is now named Loverboy since I gave it to my fiance and the Touch is now called Dollface. I also got a Kindle Fire 7inch for Christmas and I named it Brimstone.
My Kindle's name is Bit Cloud. I name all my electronics after objects and characters from Zoids: New Century.
^^ I called mine "Auryn" after the amulett in The Never Ending Story/Die Unendliche Geschichte by Michael Ende. I believe my girlfriend named hers "The Grimmerie", inspired by Gregory Meguire's Wicked.I think "Hitchhiker's Guide" or "Inkheart" would also be great names.
Mine is called Norman. I love him lots: sometimes more than my son, sometimes less. Unfortunately he has A LOT of unread books to carry about, but this gives him sexy muscly arms, shoulders, and back.
my kindle is on my nexus 7 so I don't think I can name her buy yo me her name is Lillie (my favorite girls name)

I hear ya. I call mine Maureen's Kindle. Now I need to put in some more thought.
My first kindle's name was Mr. Reed. Boring, I know. My brand-new kindle paperwhite I named "The Gateway to Dreamland" ;)

My Kindle Keyboard was Kenzie(wanted to name my last child Mckenzie if he had been a girl). I am preordering the new paperwhite so I've decided to name her Paige(page).
Oh dear ... I can see I'm definitely going to have to come up with an original name for my kindle ... I'm too embarrassed to share the pitiful thing it is right now! ha ha :)
Mine is in Irish Gaelic. It's 'A Thaisce' which means my treasure. Since I treasure every book I own. :)
Okay, it's curmudgeon time in Glockamorra.Name a gadget?
???
Sorry, no offense intended, but to me that's like calling my television Tom or my microwave Monica. I don't understand it, but since I am subscriber to that whole Voltaire thingy, I am now, nevertheless, ducking and running like hell for cover.

My Kindle Fire is named "BOOK MONSTER!" and my Paperwhite is named "little monster"Be careful! They bite.
My Kindle is named Johnny Depp. When I order a book it asks if I want to send it to Johnny Depp. Once a book is purchased, it tell me it has been sent to Johnny Depp. And I can say to folks, "Last night I was reading in bed with Johnny Depp." ;P My Kindle Fire is named My Preciousss and my son's Fire is Mission Control.
