Interesting thread!
Maybe I am just a boring and unimaginative person (off topic for this thread
) but, I've never named a telescope.
I have named other innanimate objects in the past (car, golf club, baseball bat) just not a telescope.
I call them by what they are listed in my signature as seen below...
I guess I have just not been inspired to a particular name for any of them...At least not yet!
