Dilemma please help!!

[Stu Hill]

Right – I’ve had the little lady about 2 months now, and I thoroughly enjoy her company. We’ve had some lovely times, the cat and fiddle topless, at night, must have been one of the most memorable. And the joys of discovering new B roads round our new home.
But the thing is – what am I going to call her?
I don’t want to get caught calling the wrong name out at night, in case she hears and I get dumped.

My car is called "Thalia" or "rubinas blue sky happiness" - dependent on mood.

It's a car, FFS. It's just a piece of machinery.

People who give names to cars are just one step up from the psychos who talk to their guns.

[dr al]

Don't name your car.

it's just WRONG!

I rescued my car from someone who used to call it Phoebe!

poor car!

A.

Incidentally, I've a friend who has a cat called "stupid" - always makes me laugh!

You sound like a menace and a danger to society. I hope I never meet you.

yeah, people call me that too.

I can't help it, I'm just the sort of person that talks to inanimate objects.

You're not far from me (worryingly), if you are in Lichfield.

I can recommend a friend of mine who is a very competent psychologist, if it would help?

I've just called mine a Bitch
(see 'Careful' thread).

I have deliberated with this one for a long time but have finally settled on "my car" for my Lotus. Equally inventive is the name I have selected for my wifes Focus which is now affectionately known as "your car".

Funny but my wife insists on getting the names round the wrong way.

My 2 year old daughter calls my elise the "racing car". How cool is that?

Your daughter sounds a bit like mine Shangers, although my eldest is now four (well she is next week). She tells all the kids and staff at Nursery that 'Daddy has a silver Lotus car'
She has also already decided that when she grows up she wants to be a doctor (thought you might like that) with a red Audi without a roof and a silver Ferrari! Bless!

[shangani]

Cool!

My 6 year old son has finally gotten around to liking my car as well at the moment. Doesn't like straight line speed, but laughs histerically when I bean it into roundabouts. He hadn't wanted to get in the car for over a year.

Hey, that's my nickname for Shanger's PH name! Is nothing sacred?


Mine doesn't have a name by the way... but he is definitely a girl

you have a one track mind...

That is probably why I like you!

My car has been christened The Locust by my girlfriend. Can't say I like it but the name's stuck.... My 13yr old 107k mile studenty Citroen AX is called The Tin Can, for obvious reasons!

When i lived in London,there was Bertie bus and Terry tube, hence the elise has to be Larry Lotus!

[Joe - Exige S]

Since my flat mate bought an ardent red 111S with ITG and Janspeed my graphite grey Exige S with standard exhaust (Come on Lotus hurry up and make a stage 2 for the S!!) is often referred to as the stealth machine (by me) or the Corolla food mixer (by him). The smile is soon wiped off his face whenever a bit of dual carriageway is encounter though. He who laughs last etc etc....
