Prompted by this getting christened 'Jenson', wondered what the PH collective has to say on the topic of naming your pride and joy 'appropriately'.

The only car I named was my cousins Vauxhall Viva. It was electric blue with alley cat wheels. It was knowns as "Saturday Night Viva" although it was known as the mechanics college fund to him ;-)
I had an Astra called LavistaThen a Sierra called Leone
Have always gone for the alliteration since then
Currently running Paul the pug - the diesel is a lower voice hence the boy's name. Previous 306 was called Polly!
If it helps the kids engage and attach to cars as more than just transport then it's done it's job
I also talk to my cars and apologise if I have abused them in some way in some ridiculous attempt to make sure they don't get me back

The A4 was called Hans
Lol, i drove an A3 for a while, called it HeinzFor me it all depends on the car, the chipped A3 TDI had nothing feminine about it, so clearly that was Heinz, my Alfa Mito was much more shapely, called her Nera (not strictly a girls name, but my own version of female black in italian)
Havent named my Focus yet though, given its role as family mule i'm inclined to go with Donkey
