we called ours "Honeymoon" - when it comes to our spyder it is just the two of us no kids allowed and every ride is like a honeymoon. We call her Honey for short which fits as she is golden yellow.

happy ryders of "Honeymoon"
It took me a few months to find the right name. Hopalong Cassidy was my childhood hero. He was in town for a personal appearance and the crowd kids surged forward. His horse, Topper, started a bit and stepped backwards . . . and stepped on my foot. I let out a yell and Hoppy got down and picked me up. Greatest moment of my young life! Since it is a white RT what else, but Topper?

First, it was our Plastic Pony. Then we morphed into the Tupperware Turtle. Now, my wife calls it Beauty. Being the man that I think I am...I call it The Beast!!! When my wife is not around.
"Topper" . . . folks my age will know that if Topper is good enough a name for Hopalong Cassidy's white ride, it is good enough for my white ride, too!
"Therapy", Because thats what I get when I ride it. I get away from the mother in law that moved in 6 months ago and get a little piece an quite(well sort of). So I just say I'm going to get a little therapy and my wife knows i'm going for a ride and i'll be back later.
When the wife drove ours home for the first time, she got off and said "We've had a talk and her name is Ruby". Finished the matching trailer and it got named "Tuesday".
Because my bikes live in the attached barn, and because I grew up on a farm, they don't get names until they've stuck around a couple years and become pets. My dad taught me that you never get attached to anything your going to trade, sell, or eat.
Mostly they all just get called "she" (why are bikes and boats always feminine anyway)
