I couldn't think of a name for a long time. I considered everything from Celtic gods to a heroine from a Japanese romantic comedy who drove an MCS. Finally, I was reminded of a fun book from the 1970's called The Phantom Tollbooth. The main character is named Milo. Seemed like a good choice.

I have never named a car in my entire life but for the Mini I felt somehow compelled to do so. As my screen name suggests, I named mine Pigwidgin. Immediately people assume I'm a Potterhead and therefore thought of Ron's owl as the reason for the name, and yes, I AM a Potterhead, but I wasn't even thinking of dear Harry when looking for a name. I was looking at a website on mystical names and creatures and saw that Pigwidgin means "a little fairy or gnome" and the name stuck. And Pigwidgin has decided that he is a he, and to this date the reason is a mystery.

I name all my cars, motorcycles, bicycles. They all have personalities, and all are like people. When I told my daughter I bought a mini she decided to name her...
So the new mini is called JAeeks. Short for Jack A_ _ eek!
Since JAeeks only has 15 miles on her, and she is stored for the winter it's hard to tell what kind of personality she has.
Spring will tell.

My MCS definitely does not remind me of chocolate milk. Glad I changed it to Bombadil. I guess Milo is better than naming it after this Japanese drink, though.
