We named the two household melodeons in part because,
"did you remember
the melodeon/ do you have the accordion" is a mouthful, but "Do you have
Nigel/ Mo" is not.
Those are the only instruments that have names.

Dear Friends,
I'd like to find out if you or any of the musicians you know, name your
musical instruments or identify them by gender.
BB King identified his guitar -- all his guitars according to Wikipedia
-- as Lucille, in tribute to . . . here's a link to the story.

I'm working on a story about a musician. I'd like to find out if that --
naming an instrument -- ever happens and/or, even if an instrument doesn't
have a name -- if it has a gender identity (an incredibly complicated
question these days, but my story is set in the 19th century, so I'm really
only thinking binary solutions).
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Sincerely,
Ridge
