When you play a shooter, do you name your weapons? I name my grenade launchers Bertha and my shotguns Helga.

No, but if I did my rifle (which there are many like, but that one is mine) is called Charlene.
illicit makes a damn good signature.
Every now and then, when a video game grants me the ability to use both a scary sounding light-machine gun and a powerful shotgun (you know, as opposed to a weak-sauce shotgun...), I will name the duo "Sunny Muffin". Sunny being the LMG and Muffin the shotgun, that is.

I jokingly refer to the P-90 as the Fag-90. Some guy on Counter Strike said that because I killed him with it.
This post will actually appear at the bottom of this page.

So that guy is a fag now.

I call the 93R in BF3 the 93-Retard because you look fucking mental when you shoot it.
I could name them, but I don't see what difference that would make. A shotgun named Lucille seems pretty fitting though. Isn't there a song like that?
I don't typically keep names in my head for each weapon. If you are talking like the naming system in TF2, then yes, but for other games I don't really get that attached to them.
I like to name my loadouts in Far Cry 3 funny names.
Nope, a gun is a gun. I dont see the point in naming it.

Haha, me and my friends call the P90 the P Nooby (I think we started back in CoD 4), so I suppose I should just call it the "Fag Nooby"

Only if the game allows you to put in name for the weapon like in Skyrim when you enchant something, otherwise I don't really bother to nickname them. Although I did call that mole replant stick you get from Moira in Fallout 3 "the stick of death". and kept yelling as I killed moles "Beware of my stick of death!".
If there's a feature that allows me to physically do so, then yes.
Otherwise, rarely.
not really, weapons are like women, you just use them and they dont need a name
I can never get my hands on a nametag in TF2. If I had a nametag and used it on a sniper, I'd probably call it "The Noscoper 9001" or something.
That Scout is a Soldier!

i think i got a nametag for free once
just found it when battling
shit was awesome
Well since we're also counting melee weapons apparently, I named my Krogan Warlord's biotic hammer in Mass Effect 3 multiplayer "The Klobberer".
Not yet. I call them whatever they're called in the game.
I only really do it in Team Fortress 2.

I hope you're not seriously thinking you can get a good trade on those sites?
Tf2outpost is full of people overpricing their items and tf2tp is barely used anymore.
In team fortress 2 I do, My strange scattergun is call scit-scatt-ergun. And on Counter Strike I always pick the M4A1 so I call that old reliable, because it never seems to fail me.
I got Tom to make a sig, bow down to me.
I named my dagger in Skyrim "OPbutterknife" for obvious reasons.
Namer your weapon? How foolish, ill just take my pet AR in halo out on a killing spree to stop my anger. Come on Leady lets make it rain.
Honestly though I don't name my weapons, but because of this thread I will start doing just that thank you.
Ah now I miss playing TF2, damn slow laptop and gAyT&T. I already got the Rune blade in Minecraft. OH NO THIS THREAD IS MAKING ME RAMBLE! CURSE YOU PLUTO!!!
I named my Stickybomb Launcher in TF2 "Astrid" because, let's be honest, it's an amazingly sexy name.
