I call mine Pearl.
According to the details on the Honda website it is Pearlescent White and Graphite Black in colour. It sounds so much nicer than just Black and White dont you think? :D
But anyway, she gets the name Pearl for that reason.
I guess those who wish can call it Black and White .. it is just a colour after all - I dont upset easy! LOL
So what do you call yours and why?

Bubba, as its untouchable like some peoples belly buttons
Eleanor, Nicolas Cages fault. Its the name he gave to the Shelby Mustang in Gone in 60 seconds and it's his favourite car (and he talks to it) and that's how I feel about my 1100. May think I'm sad, but I don't care.

Ive ALWAYS named my bikes. Some of them follow and why -
1st bike (Yamaha RS100!) Floyd! As in a commercial, where one character said in an southern American accent... Go get 'em Floyd!
2. GP100 Fred! As in Barney Rubble saying "Hi dere Fred!"
3 Suzuki GT250 X7 - Amante (the 271 in my screen name, e-mail etc, refers to the ccs of the bike .... eventually!) The name came about because my girl friend said Mio Amante to me (Italian for my lover I believe) and she then said that I loved the bike more than her! She made me choose between the bike and her :-/... the bike lost :'(, we got married :)... then divorced >:(. I still miss that bike!! :'( :'( :'( You can see a grainy photo of my true love on the gallery (Old & New) I NEVER carried a phoyo of the X-wife in my wallet... I'm now happily re-married :-X & STILL have a photo of the bike in my wallet!!! 8-)
4. Current bike (Still an on going project!!! :-X :( ) Kwaka GPX 250 EX - Millhouse!!!! I struggled to find a name for the bike for ages then I looked at the rear end (No comments please!! WEG!) and I saw Millhouse's face from the Simpsons stareing back at me because of the way the tail lights look!

Gertrude (Gerty) is the gixers name, was either that or Mabel. Just a daft name that stuck.
