all these replies seem a bit forced...you are working a bit too hard...the name of your MINI should come to you and roll off your tongue.
My MINI was named even before I owned her, it was love at first sight and I knew what I would call her...and that I would buy her after that first test drive.
And it's funny that you mentioned the Bugs Bunny cartoon because that is what I twittered the day I bought my MINI; "I just bought my first MINI! - I haven't met him yet but 'I will love him and squeeze him and call him George'" - lol. I was thinking of calling my MINICooperS Bugs but the hubby thought too many people would think of the VW Bug - so out the window that idea went.
A *long* time ago, I had a VW Bug named George.
Since your MINI's a girl, how 'bout Georgia? Or, Jawja?
C ya,
Dutch
PS: My MINI's a guy, and his name is Nudnik

joe_bfstplk - Jawja, I have a slight accent, but it's not that bad Kidding, it's a cute name.
Well, I have a list of great names a mile long. I just have to go through them and pick one that best suits my MINI - and they're so many good ones. This thread has been great. I have really enjoyed it but it has to end sometime. So, I'll post the name I choose after Thanksgiving. And as I stated early on, if I choose a name that you've suggested, I'll send you a batch of my wonderful Cowboy Cookies. If you have anymore great name ideas, please send them my way soon. Have a great week everyone!
What you want to avoid is debating so long over the list of names that he never gets named at all. That happened to our first MINI, I made sure that never happened again.
