I have a silver Electra Townie which I've named Sylvia.
For my car, I drive a Chrysler Sebring which I've named Sabrina.

Our tandem consists of two delta trikes that link together. I call it the "redundant recumbent." I'm sure that my other bikes have names but they haven't told me what they are yet.

I haven't named my bikes.
I also do not have names for my telephone, computer, piano, refrigerator, ceiling fan ... and the list goes on.

My beloved Trek 720 from the 90's (that was stolen) was called Arabella (it was the name of a racing horse from a cartoon).

Not very ineffable, effable, or effanineffable, I know.
"Silver!" comes to mind.
Well, my computer appears to have named itself Mac, though it's still struggling with grammar: "I Mac."
