I'd like to see a pic of it. Bamboo has personality, ya know.

I thought of Swampy. It's kinda cute but I'm not sure if it's what you're looking for. :P

does bamboo grow in swamps?

i mean, i'd suppose it does, as all it really requires is submersion of its root system, but i can't exactly picture pandas slogging around in the mud.

and there's a short straight piece, a tall straight piece, and a tall twirly piece that twists around the tall straight piece.

That was kinda my idea. Swampy isn't the kind of name that really fits bamboo. S'why I like it. :P

You could name it "Air Supply," because it's your favorite band.

This is THE BEST LIST EVER.

Personally I liked Nonwatered McPerished, but Floozy McHussalot will henceforth be my sister's new nicname.

I have 3 houseplants: Javier the cane tree, and the 2 plants that sit on either side of my fireplace, Sid and Nancy.

Was that useful at all for inspiration?

HA! one of my best friends had a plant in college named robin hood.
