I never thought of naming my stoma. I guess by now I would have to call it "Old Timer" as I have had it for 40 years now.....

Mine is named Etna after the volcano. It doesn't erupt often, but when it does, it is a full-on disaster.

I've called mine Stan, which is my nickname Nats backwards. In a way, I feel that my stoma is me backwards, and I definitely didn't want to give it a girly name, because Stan is a bit of a rude boy.
