My wife calls it Camilla at times (can't think why
), but for the majority of the time I don't call it anything. On the rare occasions where it isn't working as it should, or I'm getting a bit frustrated with it, the names I sometimes call it aren't suitable for printing!

Very true
Most of the time though it's called 'The Computer'.
Laptop is called "The laptop, or Lappy if I'm feeling chipper"
