Did You Name Your Car?

I don't normally name my vehicles but my brother convinced me to name my new Spectra Blue should be named Dave Niehaus since we are in Seattle and it's Mariner Blue.

I call him Niehaus for short.

 

Rascal,

My Amapola, Spanish for "poppy," suggests that you see this thread:

It's name is Flounder because it is a different kind of car as a flounder is a different kind of fish (both eyes are on one of its flat sides).

 

Fern because she is fern green (aka silver pine mica)

nope. toyota already gave it a name. it is called a prius.

Yeah, but when you call "Prius" in a parking lot, they all come!

 

'Rita (short for marguerita) since the Silver Pine Mica makes me think of a pitcher of frozen margueritas. And I love Jimmy Buffett, too, so my garage will be forever known as "Margueritaville".

 

My wife named ours Sparky. The white RAV4 she drives is Frosty.

 

I just decided on "Sandy" for my Driftwood Pearl Prius, because it has that Sand color...

hey that's my name!!

 

Of course!
We also have cars with personality. Our Buick is positively sentient!

Our Prius is named Rudy. I don't know why, he tells me it is his name. I won't argue with him.

 

Gitchie Gitichie Goo Poodle dumpkins whipper snicker doodle bug love Prius car. <Ahh....catches breath>
OR
You piece of %&%# , for short.

My wife named ours Maile (Maile Duval was Elvis' girlfriend in Blue Hawaii).

 

I named mine PriPri...i started calling it that when i was on the waiting list.

 

Ours is named "Maggie" (color=Magnetic Grey)

The kids really get a kick out of having a name for the car.

 

I named my car Spike, like Snoopy's tough, little brother, and also because it is silver pine mica, Spike it's a quasi acronym for its color.

 

Souten, the Japanese name for Blue Sky.

 

Yup, the car is called Daisy, but the SatNav is called Dolores . .

Dais, because Daisies come out the exhaust when we drive down the road and Dolores was called so by the previous owner and we fear her wrath if we try rename her!

 

Priscilla, Priscilla Prius. Came up with that after she started talking to me. Let me know if anyone figures out how to modify the voice in the VAS. I'd like something a little more exotic--even more for my wife to worry about as I spend more and more time with Priscilla...
