Here it is: Some needed to see the little sucker before naming it. It helps!

It is a MC "Classic" (only available in Canada)

What the hell is that?

Check out the thread above, basically it is an ultra cheap Mini. No options are available. Only single paint color.

I am thinking of adding either a nose bra or some stripes.

I am leaning toward Bob. It kind of looks like a bouy "bobing" in the water.

Cowtown MINI, is the Cow Town by any chance connected to Fort Worth? If so, I second the 'Rillo as short for Amarillo. Besides using the Spanish word for yellow, it's part of the title of one of my very favorite George Strait songs: Amarillo by Morning.

I may be way off, but I love names that have multiple levels of meaning.

Col. Mustard? I love it. Is anyone claiming that? Been looking for a name for 5 years now. And for the person who likes different levels -- Could call it Grey Poupon.

My wife named our all-MY MCS "Luigi" after the Fiat 500 tire salesman in CARS. It's stuck and I have an official Italian/English/German Mini.

"There are only two things I hate, those who don't respect the cultures of others and the Dutch." Nigel Powers, Austin's Daddy! That was too easy.

Why name your baby after some obscure place you've never been.
There's no hurry. Brainstorm with friends.

Hey, why not chick? Looks like a baby chicken, and you can do lots of double meaning sentences like:

Love riding my chick.

I have a cool chick.

Chicks dig my chick.

I like Donovan best, then Col. Mustard.

I was thinking of a mustard-related name but someone already mentioned Frenches.

How about Gulden, for Gulden's mustard?

How can you name your car already (unless you pick a gender neutral name)? While I think my car will be a boy, I won't know for sure until I pick it up.

That's what happened to me! We were going to name our car a tough name like Johnny Rocco (Key Largo). Then from the first day we sat in the car... we realized she was a girl.. and TaDA... AnnaBee picked HoneyBee
