All my plants living inside got a name. Am I the only one doing this?

Its kind of fun to say stuff like "yeh i have to water Gerta" or "I am living with Gerta, Liselotte, Bums, Godwin, Waldemar and Dawn" :P

How did you name your plants? If you do.

I don't but I do give my ugly/sick plants nicknames like "Dying plant" or "One leaf". The nickname usually sticks after the plant is healthy again. Dying plant is now a 2 meter high tomato plant full of blossom and Oneleaf has 3 leaves now.
