www.NameYourMINI.com

We here at MINI of Pensacola have put together a pretty cool website for the MINI community. Being a MINI enthusiast before I started to sell MINIs gives me a great deal of respect for my fellow MINI owner. So why not use the resources at my disposal?

Already have a MINI? Can't think of what to name it? Have a friend that hasn’t named their MINI yet? Just bought a MINI and need to name it?

Check out www.NameYourMINI.com sponsored by MINI of Pensacola!

This fantastic site was the brain child of our F&I guy Randy. I helped out with the content and moral support. It’s a name generator for naming your MINI. You just select the category from which you would like a name and Presto, you have a name for your MINI. This site is new, so more names and categories will be added in the future.

Please spread the word so we don’t have any poor orphaned MINIs out there running around un-named.

Enjoy!

John “Mungo” Genduso

Fun site... but my mini does already have a name... I did notice most of the names were for males.. they should balance it out with some more femaleish ones

We will be adding names and updating the site in the future. I don't think we did too bad considering we have no website building skills.
Thanks for the input, keep the suggestions coming.

Awww, that's so cute!
Well done.

What is it about naming our MINIs?

I didn't know it was something that many of us do, but I was thinking of a name while sitting in the show room, signing the papers.

BTW - The name I chose then did not end up being THE NAME.

Little Wing revealed her name to me after we got home.

Only later did I find out that lots of MINIs have names.

Is it because they have too much personality to be mere machines?

An interesting site, good luck with it, my MINI was named before I signed the papers on it, and it seems to be happy with it.

Too cool! Since my MINI is so classic looking, I went with a classic British name. Lo and behold, George!

I thought they were collecting mini names. I'm a little disappointed

Officially I'm against naming cars because my parents started giving all their cars lame names when I was in high school, but secretly my Mini's name is Mickey O'Neil after Brad Pitt in ******...
