Yes, there's a rather long MINI names thread that resurfaces occasionally, but I didn't get lucky finding it through the search feature. I didn't take the time to read though all the pages that kept coming up, however.

My chili red R53 goes by "Flash"!!! He's peppy and ready to go at all times. I believe he suffers from "Attention Deficit Disorder" as he doesn't always notice Speed Limit Signs!!!

Guys at work started calling mine "Dark Side" cause of the eclipse gray color and my love for Star Wars, so it's kinda stuck.

"Bella" since she was finished of in Italy at the Bertone facility.
There was a name tag in the back where the battery is and it had "Isabella"

Nope, never named a car.
My folks did, maybe it skips a generation.

Narcissa because it seemed right for a black car with an evil twist.

Mine is "Angus." Much like the short, stout, strong bovine of the same name.
The plates read "TH BOLLX" because he is!

I've not named just my MINI, I have given names to all my cars. Let's see, there was Smokey, Squeek, Frog, Readdy, Bullit, Streak, Peppy, Phoebe, Sophie, and my Dad had one he called Hesprus.
