Hey, I think "Mandolin" would be a lovely name to give a baby. Maybe even "Mandolin Wind ..."

First time I ever saw Loreena McKennit, way way back in the late 70's, she was a guitar-toting waif at Winnipeg Folk Fest. Guitar was a cranky (as in untuneable) big Martin which she called Sebastian.

Funny, I don't think I've ever named one of my instruments.
