>>Pepper!
BradB
I also have named my MINI "Pepper", so I went to your photo album for a look and was happy to see your '72 BMW 2002.....I had one back in 1972 and loved it....had it for 5 years and got what I paid for it new as a trade in on a '77 320i. I wish I still had the '72....the MINI reminded me of the 2002 which was one of the reasons I bought it !

Motor on in that beautiful "Pepper" S

I'm still waiting to get my Mini, but I'm sure that the best name I have so far is Mini Me

Just seems to work out

Norbert. Named after Hagrids baby dragon in Harry Potter. The thing is, we never call him Norbert.

Mine is Mr. Teeny, named after a Simpsons character (Krusty the Klown's monkey assistant). It fits quite well. :smile:

Lucy.

No, not for Lucille Ball, or Lucy Liu, or Lucy Lawless, or Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.

Lucy because it fit. :smile: And, well, she shines like a light.

My mom suggested Lucy Blue, but that sounds too much like Lucy Liu (no offense to Ms. Liu, but I don't want anyone thinking I named my car after her, cuz I didn't).

MINIangelD

Lucy - 2003 MCS EB/B with bonnet stripes and lots of other stuff... she's soooo sassy
