This may sound wierd...But I need a name for my computer

Yes, I know, only very few people name their computers human names, but I'm one of them (or just starting) and I need help! First off, I'd like a short 1 or 2 syllable name, probably ending in "ie" or "y" (The 'eee' sound). The computer has been very good to me, it starts downloading faster when i pat it. I think it deserves a name. It is a tangerine iMac 400/g3. Possibly a name that means "cooperation" (No name searches on any sites turn up anything with that keyword.)

By the way, the printer's name is howard.

Thanks a bunch, Nick

hows chinese...

i have a chinese dictionary... thing...
i dont even know what dialect, but it has been very reliable in the past.
I looked up computer, it came up with - Diannao
Cooperation - Hezuo
and the most unorthodox and bizzarre way to come up with names.
I sounded out howard, and got the chinese letters that would likely be used to spell it.
Then found out what those letters mean.
You can get a name that is from one of these letters (I have to much time on my hands.)
The words I got and names for each, and names for each.
Goods/Produce - Qasim
Matter/Substance - no names :(
Love - Carwyn, Erasmus, Eros, Lubomir, Philo (isnt thata type of dough?), Prem
Big + Man/ Congress of the People - Tai, Alexander, there is lots for 'man'

I think howard and Diannao sound like a wonderful pair :) Or Why not 2 'H's Howard and Hezuo.
Zuo is often an old term for a dragon. Dragon's flame can be orange, like your computer?
(is this logical whatsoever...)
Have fun upon your naming endevours!
And a Domo Arragato ^_^
