Its All In The Name...

Can I hazzard a guess that I'm not the only one who is unhinged enough to name their car, I'v called her Alis because I think shes a bit like somebody I used to know. What has anybody else named their car and why?

[Wild west Drifter]

Agro see posts way back to see why. :P

Aquilla. A kids TV program I used to watch back in the day about these kids who found a spaceship. lol, it made me chuckle. Looks just like an Aygo

Squeak, part of a nick name for one of my cats.

Mine eventually was named Aylean for obvious reasons, though it doesn't as much now since I did the suspension.

Mine's called Kai....

Kai rhymes with 'Ay'

It follows my tradition of naming cars with a K (previously had Karis & Kaori as well)

Kai is Japanese for sea (my car is 'Lagoon' Blue (sea) and it's a Toyota (Japanese car manufacturer))

You can't say I don't put any thought into these things!

My old beemer is 'Betsy', so the Aygo is called 'Betsy Beag', which is the irish for little Betsy. Oh, god, just realised how sad I am

[Airman]

Mine is named Strawberry! I chose the name before I chose the colour....

[BlackRumple]

Mines called "the mouse" in that it's black, tiny and has a pathetic sqeak for a horn.

[IrishRob]

Seems I'm not alone then, named my old starlet Charlotte.

[thefunkymunky]

My little Aygo comes in Chili Red and her name is Miss Scarlet the little minx!

[jim shady]

Whenever I finally got around to naming a car something would always go wrong or I would have an accident.

I no longer name my car due to this, sad I know.....

[Darth Sabre]

Ive nicknamed mine the "Mean Machine".

[Stevens_uk]

I called mine Berty since the day I bought it!

It's since turned into "The Bertster"

Have no idea why.

Ahh the name thread... Thought i'd might as well contribute

My old Nissan Almera was nicknamed Big Fat Blue Bitch and for all those curious i'll tell you why: -

Big = Size of the car

Fat = The weight of the car was clearly too much for my 90hp 1.5i engine to handle

Blue = The colour of the car

Bitch = It acted like one (i.e. solving one problem only encouraged it to grow two more in it's place)

So now my aygo is known as the Dinky Little Silver Slug

Dinky = Overall dimensions of the car

Little = Engine size (in both physical dimensions and engine capacity)

Silver = The colour obviously

Slug = Relevant performance equivalent of...

My car names have though too ;-)

[Angryhatter]

Mines called Zack because the reg ends in ZCK

[piezo]

Or blueberry, for those who can't read Norwegian :P
