I Need To Name My Bells.

February 6, 2009

If you read that balls, shame on you.

My dilhemma, I have three wonderful kettlebells. I see many people naming their bells. But mine have no names. There’s the little one- 8kg, midsize of 12kg, and the big one at 16kg. Eventually I plan to get Big Bertha- the 20kg one. But that will be a long time from now. So, the name Big Bertha is taken.

I’d like my bells to have either female or unisex names because, hey, I’m a chick!

Starting with the small bell for this post, what should I name the little one? If I get a few suggestions that I like, I’ll hold a poll- my first ever poll! The little one IS little, so little names. Tiny Tim wont work because it’s a boy’s name but it’s what first came to mind for me.

    Smallest to largest (assuming three sizes):

    Thor

    Conan

    Creampuff

    Don’t try to work the logic – you’ll only get a nosebleed.

    Thanks for the comment. I have to say i really like the names that “symbolik” suggested. As you know I’ll be getting mine, probably on Tuesday or so and feel free to e-mail me whatever you have that might be of help to me. It would be appreciated. So as you know I need to name mine as well. I do like “thor” though. So if you don”t use it I might Grab that one 🙂 Plus I am not always that busy for training as it might seem and I wanted to get one now so I can get the hang of it and maybe do some practicing when I am bored at home. Now don’t be mad or jealous, 🙂 but I am no way near as busy as you are and wouldn’t want to be. But girl, I was going to say boy, you are doing it and with so much energy it’s amazing. Hope school is still going well for you.
    All is OK here. I am still on track after my last little eating episode. I am glad I have Saturday off as rest because I am still sore.
    Talk to you more later. Need to get ready for work.

    As long as you name one of them “Linda”, I will be happy…:P

    I like the idea of using Russian names, so I’m going to suggest Ania!

    Hi B! Nice to see you :). I’ve been crazy here. One of these days I’ll get back on IM. Now I kind of like Creampuff for the little one…

    Rob, I will certainly email you then! I’ll try to get it to you either tomorrow or I should have some time Wed night.

    Tim, may I ask why Linda? It might work, I work with a Linda and I could tell her I named my belle after her ;). It definitely won’t be the little one though. Linda isn’t big, but she is pretty darn tough.

    Luke, I like that idea as well, but still love creampuff!

    Uh uh – Creampuff is the BIG one. Kinda like the huge hairy prison inmate named “Tiny”. He’s the scary one.

      I know, but I really like it for the little one ;). I don’t have the big big one yet. I’ll be getting the 20kg one of these days but I’m not ready for it. I do like the idea of naming the big big one a little little name though. Any other suggestions for the little one though? Otherwise it might end up being creampuff ;).
