I call my stove The Stove. As in, I need to clean The Stove, I need to fill The Stove. The Stove will start running soon. The Stove is keeping the house nice and warm..........etc

Same here except it's the PELLET stove. If the lady hears me say "I'm gonna clean the stove" she may get the wrong idea ; )

Good point about cleaning 'the stove'. Guess after 33 years of marriage and never once cleaning the cooking stove she knows better.

"The Buck Stove" and "The Little Hampton" My old wood hauler is named "Everette" after the original owner. My brother has one named "Ernie" We Hettinger boys name stuff. Now if ya look at Gamma Ray's wood stove named......"Chief".....now there is a great name for a stove 
Smart women!

" Le Poêle " ( = the stove) or " le Harman " when I talk about it.
But during the first lighting after cleaning, I help it whith : " Allez, Pépère ! " (~ Come on, Grandpa ! )
Au revoir.

I just call it "the stove" but she calls it "YOUR stupid goddam pellet thing" when I'm out of town until I tell her the blinking 3 means she needs to put more pellets in it...

And then she says why didn't you get a stove that fills itself and banishes you to the doghouse without supper.

Never named the stove myself but I think the wife named it Honey because when she gets near it she is always saying honey your hot
and I know she isn't talking to me.
and I know she isn't talking to me.

Did not have one, but the first thing that came to my head is "grunt" as in a soldier that will do anything you say and not cry about it. Not pretty but gets the job done.

I call mine "Paid for". I was thinking of calling it Obama, since he paid for most of it... Maybe I could call it Stovebama
