I need a name for my MINI...

I'm trying to pick out a name for my car but not sure what... We think it looks like the bumper cars at Knoebels Amusement Resort (anyone from central PA?) We also thought about Big Red? I don't know... any suggestions??

Sometimes it takes a while for your MINI to take on a personality of its own. Patience - a name will come to you when you least expect it...

I've had my MINI for over a year now and STILL haven't found a name that quite fits her. (It's definately a her!) I asked for help to name mine on NAM a year ago and got the usual remarks...Banana split, Banana Peel, Yeck!!! So take your time and wait, it'll come to you eventually.

If you wait much longer, you can call her "Old Yellar"

A little backround info on you may be helpful. What do you do for a living, any special interest, where do you live....... that would help with better name suggestions
