My question is my cite,

No, really though, I’ve come to that age where I’m thinking about a proper name for my penis. Very soon I’m probably going to be introducing it to a wide variety of pleasure receptacles, so I think it’s only natural that it has a name.

I’m a huge fan of Homestar so my first thought was Trogdor, but then I remembered that he’s also called “The Burninator” and that is something I _definitely_ do not want to associate with my love toy.

It must be something masculine, of course, but I want something creative also. Thus, Smasher, Destroyer, and The Fonz, are out. (Heeeeyyyy)

You know what. My real surname is John, and my ex-GF always used to call it “Little John.” My ex-GF was Japanese and had never seen Robin Hood, but I actually kinda liked it. Little… but actually really big. Has a sexy baritone voice and what-not.

There’s nothing really unusual about my penis that I could give it a descriptive nickname. Length is average, maybe it’s a little thicker than the usual. I for one certainly enjoy it at least.

Ok, I think I’ve said enough.

tbh I don’t call my penis anything and it’s been introduced to a number of “Pleasure receptacles” (Band name?) in its time.

You should always address it as “Sir.” After all, it’s giving the orders even though it has to stand at attention. Actually, it gives orders _especially_ when it’s standing at attention.

Same. To be honest I always thought it was a little immature, and not having a name for it certainly hasn’t detracted from its ability to find pleasure receptacles. YMMV.

Isn’t it awfully nice to have a penis?  
Isn’t it frightfully good to have a dong?

😃

Sorry, no suggestions forthcoming from me. I must confess that for one who names all his toys (computer, camera, car…) I’ve never thought to give my penis a nickname. Perhaps someday I will meet someone who will do this for me, and then I will know she’s The One.

I would be inclined to keep the name Little John.

Why do men have to name it, anyway? Learn to use it well, and nobody cares what you call it.

Well, ok, I’d probably care if I heard you calling it “Mom”.
