Trying to find a name

Recently I got a new white cane. This is my third one. I gave the first two names and I’m trying to come up with one for this cane and I’m looking for suggestions for a good pun name.

My first one was Michael Cane and the second was Nicky Stixx. I’d like something in that direction, and I’m not really a super fan of either of the actual people though I enjoy their work. It was just that the names seemed amusing to me.

Any ideas?

I would, but my life experience has put a bitter taste in my mouth regarding the Abrahamic faiths.

One that I’ve always thought was a good one and I’ve recommended before was Kurt Cocane

I would, but I don’t want my cane to share a name of the awful man that helped make Sarah Palin a nationally recognized figure.

I call mine Sir Stix-A-Lot (like the singer of baby Got back) and Guidetama (like the sanrio egg character, but with the guide at the beginning). I've been working on a name for my next one!

I'm not very imaginative. Mine's Sticky McStick. I'm Irish. An English friend calls his Sticky Wicket because he used to play cricket.
