How to name a piece

[lou13]

ATTENTION: Don't over think the name, it won't be as good
Step 1: Smoke up, what better way to discover the name of your piece than smoking in it? I suppose this step is optional, but highly recomended!
Step 2: Look at the piece, what shapes are incorporated in the design? What do the colors remind you of, think of vegetables, people, animals, and even dinosaurs. If you did smoke before, a lot of names will sound awesome, but you will know when it is the right one.
Step 3: Think of the sound it makes when you take a hit from it, if it is a water pipe, you might want to use some water word, (bubble, swish, slosh) onomatopoeia if you will. Also think about where you got it and at what length you went to get it, if it was some far fetched adventure to attain the piece, add something in the name that will remind you of that.
Step 4: (optional) adorn the name. Adding Mrs, Miss, Mr, Sir, MC, etc. will give the name some flair and will impress your friends. Drizzles, shizzles and izzles are all recommended.
Step 5: Enjoy the naming process, if you are baked, you're sure to have some laughs along the way.



To the GC community: What are some names you have come up with in the past. It would be cool to share some names we've come up with. Also, this is a great place to ask for help naming, it would be cool to have it all in one thread!

Toke on and enjoy life!

ok. names my friends and I have come up with collectively:

Sammy Smoka
Mars
Marvin the Martian
Mr. Clean
Saturn
Jupiter
Kermit
The Judge
Butters
Hades

Now, my issue:

I got my new pipe. i didn't want to even think of a name for it until it colored out and i could see the pieces full personality. it's almost there I'm excited

here it is (the last pic is The Abomination!)

nice names man, what do you mean "coloured out"?

[late joint]

it started out a clear glass with a yellow tint to it. it looked like glow-in-the-dark. it was cool. but when the hot resin skicks to the glassinside, it changes colors. now it's a deep blue almost purple color

I named a friend's wooden pipe Treebeard after that big talking tree from lord of the rings, and I named my own Rafiki after that crazy ass monkey from Lion King.

Me and my friends had 3 glass pipes. They were all part of a team, just as we were. So when they were together, we called them the "Fantasy Mission Force"

My brother named his Johnny Hopkins.

"I smoked pot with Johnny Hopkins" from Step Brothers

my friends bubbler is named Wilson after the volleyball in cast away

"WILSON!!"

after a nice bowl of Kali Orange, the name Jirachi stuck. like the pokemon Jirachi it's not official though. i don't like it as much as what it could be. fuck!

[Cpt Cannabis]

Some names. some i remember from other threads so i apologize ahead of time if i stole it.

Poseidon
Knight Rider
Hank
Zeus

I think greek god names always sound really cool. Also you can name them along with colors. Like poseidon would be a good name for a blue piece and mars for a red piece. Im still looking for the ultimate piece to name knight rider. I know that i will see a piece and look at it and be one of those ultimate moments. A slow look over and a soft whisper and say "Knight Rider"
