Default Do you Name your Bridge Pins?

I was starting to feel left out. You know we're all gonna be banned, right?

I can't come up with one name for a guitar…how on earth am I going to come up with 6 different names? Oh, wait a minute. I have nylon stringed guitars…no bridge pins. What a relief!

I used to name my tuners on my 6 string.
Then I got a 12 string.
So I just named every 2nd tuner "Junior".

I always buy bridge pins in those sets that give you one extra pin...
and then I name them after the Seven Dwarfs, making sure "Grumpy" pins the B-string.

No, but now I wonder if I should name my nuts and saddles.
