Default Do You Name Your Cars?

I have always named my cars based on their perceived personalities. I had Bubbles (big white Concorde) and Eeyore (blue/purple Olds) and Baby (Pontiac Sunfire) and now Blue (SL2). I feel kind of bad for naming her Blue, but she's a pretty average car and hasn't had any issues or anything that sets her apart from a thousand other SL2s. Do you name your cars?

Default My ex did that

I had to laugh at this thread. Several years ago, I dated a guy who called every single car he ever owned "Betsy". I remember thinking at the time that he was the only person outside of the movies that I had known to name a car. By reading this thread, I guess a lot of people actually do name their cars.

I've met a couple people who named their cars, but many of them also owned boats which obviously are also named. I'd find it rather odd to call them all Betsy though. I figure they all deserve a different name.

That is too funny, you know every car my mother owned had the same name? It did not matter what type of car it was either. I have named some of my trucks in the past, but for a fix-r-upper (a 92 Buick Park Ave) her name is "The Beast" and oddly enough for a car that odd, runs quite well.

I am thinking my next car has to have a good creepy name as I have yet to go the creepy route. The newest car we have now (a family car) is just called "Car".

My saturn is named "the gold car" to differentiate it from the family blue Ford Escort.

The only cars I have ever really named were ones that the names were unrepeatable. There was one that would only start if you were nice to it, I swear. She was the most cankerous piece of junk I ever owned.

My current car kind of has a name. She is 'special car' named by my little one when she first saw it.
