I haven't done that, yet, but it is something to ponder.

No, I’m a rather sane person, but to each their own. If it makes you happy then by all means, name away.
Hey, I have never been accused of being sane.
Most who meet me believe that I am indeed one crazy f.
At least, I do not talk to my coins.

I found a 1913 barber dime years back that I named it after the farmer. The farmer is no longer her nor is the farm. Have a good weekend all
Just the Crust Bucket.
Not really... don't want to do something that might impede selling the coin down the road.

It's called marketing. The price usually increases on "named" coins.

This one is named the Thing.
What a gorgeous blue Buff!!
I call the top four Buffalo varieties-1916 D DDO-001, 1918-D 8/7, 1935 DDR-001, and the 1937-D 3 legged the "Fab Four." These are not mine BTW, but I do have lower grade representatives of all four.
For a time in Jr High my nickname was The Thing! Because I had some seriously beefy strong legs for my age lol, short and stocky helped too!

I called this coin the "Sprint Car" coin. It was a Friday night while sitting in the stands at our local short track watching sprints, between heats, I was surfing Ebay on my phone and found this coin raw. It "looked" like the FS-801 variety, so I put it in my watch list. Went home and sure enough it was.
One week later, 1200 miles away in Wisconsin visiting my sons on my way to 2013 Chicago for the ANA, I was the high bidder.
PCGS graded it MS62.
Ben Frosty #s 1 - 16, their nephews John Frosty #s 1 - 8 and finally their uncle and great uncle Chuck Toned Walker.
I assigned the same name to most of my coins.

Very interesting topic!
I have given nicknames on some of my state quarters. Here are three of them.

Double Carolina Wren

I have called a few of my coins many names on occasion when the prices nose dived in recent years. I can't share the names.
Gorgeous double strikes!
HOW ELSE DO YOU FILE THEM !
Here's my Big Bang theory, put the phone down, and stand up straight.
I have a few slabbed coins named "Undergrade" and a few named "Overgrade".

In all my years of collecting, and with literally hundreds of coins (beyond the jars of cents, nickels, dimes, quarters), it has never occurred to me to name a coin. Looking at the posts above, I certainly see some fitting descriptors. I name my dogs and cats, and I have a few choice titles for some humans I have encountered.
However, I have never named an inanimate object. Cheers, RickO
