i didnt know that about penelope. i have a few other ideas that i came up with like einstein and tesla, tyson after my boyfriend’s cat as he is constantly going and very hyper mood wise lol and well the pump is constantly going. saturn which is my boyfriend’s other cat for the CGM as she is mellow and quiet where the CGM hopefully will be mellow as far as where my sugar levels are. so im thinking about a few others and taking from this list as well. ---

I was being all shy… and look at this. You loved it. 😃 🤣 Now I run a 670G group so people sometimes call their pumps things that are less than flattering, but last night someone posted a story about “Forest Pump”… then went onto tell about how it was trying to kill him, so there was that… 🤔 ---

@EricH has an OmniPod and it comes with a PDM (which is like the remote control for the insulin delivery device stuck to his arm). He calls his PDM “the pod boss” because it bosses his pod around. This is much more funny in real life than it is written down I just realized. 😄 ---

Toddler Robot Brick in my Pocket. 🤔 I thought someone was just listing random nouns, but turns out it’s another pump nickname from my group. Anyway, Einstein and Tesla’s got my vote. 🙂 ---
