what's your MINI/Mini called?
 

okay, so I see many MINIacs have named their cars. My R52 has yet to tell me her name so I was wondering what some names are and how your MINI/Mini told you.:) :popcorn:

"The Blurr" !! idk why... but my car reminds me of a go kart.. and the best go kart of all time is "The Blurr" from the he-man women haters club!

Cortana. She's blue, sexy, and super badass. :-D

I named my Roadster S "John Bull", the British equivalent to America's "Uncle Sam". It came to me immediately and I knew it was right. He is in the middle of production in Oxford (as of 9/6/13).

Lilith... she's a little demon... and a little temptress... and all woman... lol

Sanson. Named after my favorite bulldog on my favorite telenovela.

great names! keep 'em coming!!!

After watching my daughter on the riding lawnmower, then student driving, I teased her that for her own safety her first car should be a "tank".

She joked about it with the guys at school; when she showed up last week with her first car, an '07 MC, its name was unanimously proclaimed:

"Sherman"

Its a car, not a pet or a person. It has no name, it has no personality, it has no identity. My 2003 had no name, nor my 2012.

That's fine. I never named my previous cars except my MGB. I called him "The Brit" (short for British Leyland) for some mysterious reason. Otherwise, it's always been the "Jag", the "Caddy", the "Hummer" (H3), the "Beamer", etc.

I name all my cars But By far the name that came for me for this one was perfect

Bella is a female name. It is a diminutive form of names ending in -bella, such as Isabella and Annabella. "Bella" is related to the Italian and Latin words for beautiful.[1][2] Despite the name Bella meaning beautiful, Bella is also literally translated in Latin meaning "Wars."[3]

I had a bit of a fight to Get her, and a wait like with any good love story.

I'm fascinated with the respective gender and name choices people make and, to a lesser degree, why they name their cars at all.

My oldest daughter never named her cars. My youngest daughter currently drives a BMW 328i named "Brutus" (after Brutus Buckeye the Ohio State mascot). Of course, I had my MGB nicknamed the "The Brit" and now a MINI Roadster S named "John Bull". Go figure...

Euro Beast

08 R55 Burgy Cooper O'Zug, wife named it because its BRG, and madien name was Irish. Then the 06 R53 we got for my daily driver and autocross is Paxton.

My wife named our Countryman Minerva.

My Mini's name is Austin from Austin Powers
My Golf's name is V-Pud
My Passat's name is Farfegcouger
My wife's Jetta, she won't name it

Artoo is the name of my 2003 R53. On Pirate days he answers to Arrrrrrrrrr. But most days he uses the Force to get me to campus through Beggars Canyon.

MINI owners are absolutely nuts. The stickers, badges, colors, stripes, names .... not normal.

Doug. His name is Doug. I have no idea why.

My 13 JCW has a red roof so named him after a famous person who had red hair. And because he's sick fast, I changed it up a bit. His name: Vincent Van Go. Vincent for short.

My 05 R50 appears a lot slimmer than the R56 so his name is Starvin Marvin. Marvin for short.

The 06 CR with Checkered Roof and bits that I have sold was named Bergey after Bill Bergey, former linebacker of the Philadelphia Eagles.. went with my tag: GOEAGLS.

The 05 MCS convertible that has since been sold was Jet Black with Union Jack theme so it only made sense to call him Dr Evil. His tag was DR EEVL.

Never mind the names of the Countryman and the PW R50... my other half named them girly names. :roll::lol:

My red 2013 FJCW hardtop is called Churchill. Churchill the Bulldog.
