Thanks for that, I thought they'd probably be the same.
I have the same problem with my missus. I hadn't thought of giving my bikes names, but whenever I'm talking about them I have to describe them in some way rather than using make and model. The colour is a significant identifying factor, but as most of my bikes are red, the colour often doesn't help, so the next point of note is the location, and we're often reduced to 'the red enduro bike in the garage' or 'the red road bike in the shed'.
