I named my cues Lucasi and Downey.
Very Cool. I like that design. And very appropriate. 
The previous owner named my Randy Mobley "The Red Baron"
Kinda fitting
All of mine have had the same name .......Missy
I didn't name mine but it was fondly named by my cue repairman "firewood" lol

Name every cue that I have built. There's "Scales" "Money Maker" " Long Don" "Applejack" "Spot" "Running Reds" "Bling" and "Zipper" just to name a few.
But one of my favorites was "Cat Pan" or "Shit Pan". Either one would fit. The customer wanted red rings in a cue, so I went down to Petco and found a cat litter pan that was red and cut it up to make the few rings I needed for the cue. The only problem was it was scented, it took a while to get the smell out of my shop. Maybe I should have called it "Stinky".

Puts out more than most wives I would estimate.
The Lucky 13
2006 was my first year going up to the US Open. Barrys daughter Kelly sold me the 13th ticket from the end on a Schon Pool Cue. She said Ive got 13 left how many of them do you want? I said one 13 is my lucky number and sure enough it was. So that cue is The Lucky 13. Great STL 4. I still play with it from time to time. Havent named my other cue yet, Im thinking Ticklicker....like the name of Daniel Boones rifle.
So after 10 1/2 years I have reached my 300th post.
Recently I had watched a show on samurai's and the samurai swords. Alot of famous swords have names attached to them. As the cue is the weapon of the pool player, I got to thinking if any players have ever given names to their principal playing cue. I know over the years I have seen many cue makers give names to cues they make. Even companies such as McDermott, Viking, Meucci, and Pechauer have given names to cue models they produce.
I have not given much thought to naming any of my cues over all the years that I have played. But I would be curious to know if any of the players on the forum have named their cue of choice, and what those names are. Might give me some ideas for naming my cues.
