Jess came up with the name "Angel" for her pink animas pump which I think is a lovely name as I consider it as a guardian angel watching over her diabetes :)

lol yes I didn't think it would be a name for a boy's pump :)

Erm, let me think, we had a cat called Gizmo, that might be a boyish type of name for a pump.

People that can't listen to other people's opinions.
People that can't say sorry.
When I speak about mine to my local friends we always refer to the pump as 'Forrest'. Don't think your Dylan will know Forrest Gump though!!!!

You're never too old to name your pump! I have been 'with' Pancreolό for 6 months now. Couldn't live without him. :D

That is EXCELLENT! :lol: :lol:

My partner refers to the pump as 'the child'..

The child needs changing..

The child is hungry..

The child has ran away (when it's hanging out the bed haha)

It's quite funny i admit! i havent thought to name mine yet, i thought about asking my 6yr old nephew, but after he named my flowery rubber duck 'Dave' and named his female kitten 'Creepy' i'm not so sure that would be a good idea :lol:

The conservative party, people who are cruel to animals and aggressive people
My pump was quickly christened Pete. (cars etc. In our house are always named after their first initial). The only exception is our gorgeous putty cat who's called Greyam :))
