Wow. This is great. I, too, have a save game naming ritual/habit. My first save game is called...'First' and so on. I rarely use more than two slots. The other one is aptly named 'Stuck'. A save game named 'Test' is not uncommon.
This is not a ritual but a habit. I take excessively long to complete adventure games. I've been playing the ScummVM-enabled BASS since August, I like to savour the games. It is for this reason that I feel no need to replay adventure games.
Oh and (don't ask me why) but I play games with all the lights turned off.
