If you have a Littmann stethoscope (cardio III), did you put the plastic name tag on? It seems practical, but kinda ugly to me. If you don't use it, how do you tell yours from everybody else's?
 
In peds by the usual tasteless collection of teddybears and beads attached to it.
 
No, because I don't allow it to be in a position to require identification. That only leads to it being lost or stolen.

I wrote my initials on a tiny square of white paper and placed it on the black tube thingamajig part and put some tape over it. It's small and on the back side of my stethoscope so it doesn't look wierd but I can tell mine from everybody elses
 
I had mine laser etched on the bell. Stethoscope.com and Steeles both do it.
