Dear Sotw.
I was just wondering if anyone in here have named their saxophone?
ps. I hope i posted this in the right section.
Regards Louis.

My alto is Lady Jane.
My soprano is John Thomas.

 

[belliott]

I have 2 saxes......I call one of them Tenor and the other one Alto.

My Chu was made the same year my Mother was born. I named her Rose, my Mom's middle name.

 

[maddenma]

I do think this is about the 4th time I've seen this come up, but I'll bite.

Yeah, I named them (in order):

Buescher, Buescher, Buescher, Buescher, Buescher, and his other brother Buescher.

They do have middle names:

Sop, Alto, C-Mel, Tenor, Bari, and Parts.

Pleased to meet brother Buescher (Parts), how do you do?

Well said...I am with you.
Even more naff than naming cars.
Butt clenching. :evil:

 

[bkobog]

interestingly, only my curved soprano is named ... ... wonder why myself

 

[Tony5175]

I'm getting a 82Z soon. Thinking of names already...

 

[nachoman]

my old Conn 30M was called Suzie but that was the exception....

 

[CooolJazzz]

I've called all of my saxes unflattering names over the years, but never named any of them.

 

[saxphil]

yeah, hey you

 

[dexdex]

Well, I didn't think about it. But, if needed, I could choose: Zoot for my sop, Phil for the alto, Dex for the tenor and Cube for the bari. Maybe it will help them to help me to sound like ....

 

[Captain Beeflat]

I suppose that "Martin" for a Martin would be just about acceptable.

 

[Grumps]

When I was in high school, we'd call my curved soprano "The Little Man". I still to this day affectionately refer to my sopranino as "The Beast".

 

[Koen88]

I name my alto`s and C-mel with their brand, and my tenor I call Tenor..

 

[divingdog]

It is so cute to name the saxophone, maybe I should start to think one

 

[toughtenor]

I wouldn't dare. My wife says I already spend more time with my saxes then with her, so if I now come up with names for my intstruments the
$#!^ will really hit the <@!>. :evil:
Just kiddin' , She's a forgiving person in that respect but this WOULD be pushing it a little.

 

[sandster]

Names, eh? Interesting. I sometimes wonder why some people choose gender for their saxes. And mostly, the saxes are referred to as "she", as in "She..." No, I won't go there!
