We call ours Elsie after my mother. We bought it and all our camping equipment with the money she left us when she passed away. She suffered from dementia for a few years, but loved going out, so now she goes with us every time we go camping.

That is a lovely thought!
My mother thought camping was wonderful for us..not for her,the thought of lying on a mat under a sheet in the rain was unthinkable..so am sure if I had named my tent after her we would never get it pitched

Oh no, you're making me want to go and buy a 'Freda' in honour of my Mum (who died in Feb): she loved the freedom of camping.
I already have Esther the Estoril, Dartford the Tunnel, and the B&B Tent. Do you think OH would notice another bundle under the bed?

I call mine many names- especially when putting it up and breaking down in the wind and rain.
None that can be repeated!!!!!!!!!

Well my Corado 6 is now just called the 'big tent' by I call my Cabanon Emma because we don't know the model of it, but the pole bag has Modele - Emma, so I'm assuming its a Cabanon Emma.
However, she is only called Emma on the forum to DH its the 'new tent' or the 'frame tent'.
