Default Did you name your car yet?

All right I know this is silly but I was wondering if any of you have given your car a name yet. I had a 79 Benz that I called Randy, my 97 Maxima never had a name. I have named the ES "Loudella" after a blues song. Also the woman who lives in the car is Louise (the voice control system). There is another voice who knows all the streets and cities, I am working on a name for her. Maybe she is Louise's evil twin?

Come on PsychDoc, I know you have named your car. Give it up!!

My old Miata was called "Mini-me". I am tempted to call my new ES "KITT" (old 80's show Knight Rider).

I never thought about naming any of my cars before, but my wife already calls our ES350 "Alexus" cause my name is Alex. I'm not too happy about this feminine name, cause I kind of gave it a more manly nick name of "silver bullet" already, since its a Tungsten Pearl Of course, neither of us are serious about this

***Come on PsychDoc, I know you have named your car. Give it up!! ***

Actually, I really never thought to do this but now that you mention it I might just christen it "Siggy" (after Sigmund Freud, of course!).

I thought Mabaline, but it is a Lexus not a Ford. (that was for the older crowd)

I chose Alexus. Remember back to Dynasty as in Alexis Carrington Colby Dexter. Now that's class.......with an attitude.

I rarely name my cars. Although, I had a Pontiac Bonneville once that someone else named "the Boner-ville" LOL ....and it is not what you are thinking. It was because I didn't really care for the car. It was just a car I had for a few years until I bought one that suited me.

Anyway, if it is okay with Twister, I would like to steal the name that your wife had named yours.

"Alexus"

She looks like an Alexus.

Oh, how could you?

So you refer to your car as "she"? Don't want to start a color-war, but some colors do get associated with feminine/masculine side. Of course, MSM is in a class by itself.

Regarding "the boner-ville", not sure if there is some truth in that, considering how flirty you are on this forum, Miss 20%-tint bad girl with push-back seat for long legs
