  We settle several questions regarding the model theory of Nakano spaces left
open by the PhD thesis of Pedro Poitevin \cite{Poitevin:PhD}. We start by
studying isometric Banach lattice embeddings of Nakano spaces, showing that in
dimension two and above such embeddings have a particularly simple and rigid
form. We use this to show show that in the Banach lattice language the modular
functional is definable and that complete theories of atomless Nakano spaces
are model complete. We also show that up to arbitrarily small perturbations of
the exponent Nakano spaces are $\aleph_0$-categorical and $\aleph_0$-stable. In
particular they are stable.
