I was originally thinking something along the lines of "Lethbridge-Stewart" for my MCS but in the end I thought it would be too geeky... so (with the help of a friend) he ended up being named Radcliffe...

I think mine is going to have two names, "Moneypenny" and or "M". A female name for a female car.
