Do you name your cars?

My first car was an old 85 Cavalier that was a nasty, faded, pale yellow. We called it “The Banana”. We eventually gave it a paint job, a nice dark blue (I think from the Dodge Viper) so it was renamed “The Blue Banana”.

No other cars have got a name. No Mach-E yet, but I’m sure it will get a name, just because I will need to call it something in the Ford Pass app.

I never named vehicles, but my young son enjoyed naming them.

My 24-year-old Lexus is called "Grandpa."
My new electric Mustang is named "Fluffy".

Your son must not like you very much ?

I wasn't planning on naming my car until I put in my VIN into the Ford website and it asked me to create a nickname for my car. It's Mach E McMach Face until I can think of something better.

I've seen so many posts here where people have named their cars. While I once named a car "Betsy", for humorous reasons, I have never thought about giving a car a name beyond that.

So I'm curious as to how many of you have named your cars.

In more than 50 years of owning cars I have only named two, both Mustangs, with vanity license plates that matched their names: Yellow Pony and Blue Pony. I suppose that means the MME will be called Red Pony, although without a matching vanity plate since I now use one marked for handicap accessibility--and I'm not giving up blue zone parking.
