    Too old, perhaps to recognise a classic line from Pink Floyd's The Wall.

    You know, you could also name it after you get the license plate.

    Plate number: 123-PGM
    Resulting name: Purple Grumpy Monster, or "Monster" for short.

    Plate number: 123-BRT
    Resulting name: "Bert"


    So maybe see what letters you get on your license, and then figure out what kind of a name you can come up with?

    Good luck and have fun!

    Alas, Tony, music started going downhill around 1800.

    Funny :)

    Our Prius is R2E2. r2d2's child. Multi-lingual, a personality all her own.
    ®ona and E(ric), too.
    And for whatever reason, I am reminded of E=mc^2.

    How about Einstein ?

    After a year of talking to the navigation voice in my 2004 Silver Prius, I named her Bea(trice).

    I couldn't wait so long for the new Barcelona Red 2006 - Looking for a Spanish flavor, I decided on Carmen - and after that smiled when thinking of Carmen Electra...

    First time I've ever named a car (except with some expletives at bad times... )

    What do you call that poetry that has three syllables in the first line, five in the second and three in the last line?

    I assume you are not confusing it with haiku which has a 5-7-5 syllable pattern.
