I am always amazed when people name their canes. I have never thought of my cane that way. The cane is just a tool. Besides I usually end up replacing my cane every few years.

moumoku (盲目) a bit of lighthearted irony for me, it means 'blind' in Japanese

I did think of naming her. But, If I accidentally say something like "where's my Somantha or something", in front of my friends, things can go out of control very quick. So, it's just cane.

I must admit, I waiting 6 months for the name to come to me, and she got destroyed before it did. Now I just figure I shouldn't get too emotionally attached...another shopping cart could come along any time :L

When I was a kid my canes were all named Frank for some reason. Nowadays I don’t name them though. My cane is just “my cane”.
