Default Car Names

Hey everyone,

Got into a discussion about car names with the gentlemen at my office and wanted to see who else names their cars and why?

I don't hear people giving their cars name too often anymore but when I was a kid lots of car enthusiasts did it. I think we, as a group, are as enthusiastic as they come.

Post 'em up!

'05 S - Chelsea (Girl I met while visiting Cali years ago )

'98 Corolla - Samantha (first grade school crush seemed like a good name for my first car)

I still give names:

Lucy was my first car, 92 Honda Accord EX, Coupe - the red reminded me of the lipstick on that old show I Love Lucy

I had a 91 Corolla I named Tommy the Toyota & an 03 Element named Ernie the Element. When I had a pair of S2Ks, I used the Mario & Luigi theme but I still dont have a set name for the S2K other than Stookie which everyone uses.

Not sure what to name the Lotus yet

No names for either car I've owned. I called my Eclipse "the eclipse", and I call my S "the s".
