Question Whatever should I name my guitars? Please help

I named my signature guitar Lord Bartholomew Higgensbottom Excaliber Uxorious III, , which came to me in an epiphany,
but I'm stuck on these two.

First up is my Aria 18 Century Parlour:



Next is my Gibson Howard Roberts Fusion:



Thanks in advance.

I usually don't name my guitars, but my wife gave me an Epiphone ES-339 Ultra a few years ago, and I had her name engraved in a truss rod cover. She was thrilled. Now there are very few things I can think of that I'd like her to be thrilled about more than buying me guitars. So that was a win.

I don't name my guitars per se. The twelve string is "twelve", the koa guitar is "koa", the Rainsong is "Rainsong", and so forth. Yours are cool instruments!

I would call the Aria Master Percy Crummles, and the Gibson Dolge Orlick

No. Otherwise, you'll never be able to be nostalgic about them.
