Do You Have a Name For Your Eee?
Since day one of acquiring my Eee, I’ve been a constant poster/lurker at the EeePH forums, and aside from the usual modding/hacking and upgrading discussions, I’ve come across one interesting thread there: Do You Have a Name For Your Eee?”
And the EeePH members answered, in full force. Here are some of the funnier and/or interesting Eee nicknames:
- cloudwalker: At home, my partner calls mine “lappie” but I call him “the little one”. Sometimes, I call him “blackee” coz he’s not white.
- habagat: Palantir. With it, I can see far and wide…
- sillie: chicken.
- juntzo: blue baby
- oneal: I call my white triple E – “Holocron”
- fountainpen: All my gadgets have LOTR names. Since this little EEE is such a beauty I’m calling her Luthien
- jericodc7: Sir Sophia
As for me, since I’ve always thought that the Eee looks like a small & cheap white macbook, I call my Eee “Mac Envy”.
What do you call your Eee?

My dad wanted to call my eee pc something like Ellie or an ‘E’ name, and I said ‘that’s too cliche” and so we named her Cliche.
She’s a 4G Surf.
