My father always called my sisters car "Beulchen", which is the german diminutive word for dent. It was a very basic Ford Fiesta. No wireless car key, no electrically controlled side mirrors but at least it had AC.

I had a car, license plate CME1234 (fake numbers) so I called it "The Comemobile"

little did I know that Neighborhood Tires could also see the name I gave it on the portal.

I named my Mustang Sally.

Never named any of my cars until we got an ID4. It is called Heidi.

I had an Impala that I named Vlad, so it was “Vlad the Impala”.

My car's plate has the letters LCP, so we call it El Capo (the mafia boss)

I have a white Prius named Shadowfax so if I need to go somewhere fast I can yell "run Shadowfax, show us the meaning of haste!"

I named my 2007 Audi S4 Brunnhilde. She is my beautiful Valkyrie, though I rarely see her nowadays.

I named my red xtrail "Big Red" after the feminist, my first car was called Betty, named after Master Betty from Kung Pow.

Vera. Technically given by a coworker.

She's a WRX with lots of parts from Cobb.

Vera was Janes favorite after all.

Every gray car I have (always a hatchback) has been named "Vanship" after the flying vehicles in the anime Last Exile

It's just a nickname I know, I don't refer to the car like that to others

Little red hatchback: Elmo Blue SUV with a big, ugly nose: Gonzo

I have named some of the cars I have owned.

1970 Chevy Impala: Liberty. I purchased it from a guy that lived in Liberty, KY.

1997 Nissan 200SX SE-R: Dot. It was one of ~700 200SX's made that year that was the Pacific Blue color and it reminded me of Carl Sagan's "The Pale Blue Dot" documentary.

2003 Acura TL: Sally. No specific reason, other than it just fit the personality of the car.

2014 Camry (current car): Pearl. It's painted in Toyota's Cosmic Mica Gray and it glitters in the sunlight, vaguely reminiscent of a pearl.

Just for reference, I'm 54 and have had a license since 1986. Liberty was my first car. There are a few cars not mentioned above, because I just never named them. The 200SX was the second SE-R I owned. The first was a 92 Sentra SE-R, which I liked a lot more than the 200SX, it just never got a name.

My last car was a Ford escape called 7 after seven of nine from Star Trek. I was feeling less creative when we got our current car, a tan C-Max, and it's just called Sandy.

I named my motorcycle. His name is Bubba, and he's a power bottom.

We have a 2012 Ford Fiesta that we call "Siesta". That car sucks a good amount. Been meaning to get rid of it for years now.

We have a Hyundai Sonata hybrid with Blue Drive so she is called “Blue.”

My first car was a 96 f-150 the previous owner named "Maurice" I didn't change it cause it supposed to be bad luck. Then I had a 2001 Pontiac grand am I called "Jaun claude" which I was rather proud of. My current one is just "V" cause it's a Ford Fusion Hybrid and the engine looks like it came out of cyberpunk.

2001 Subaru Impreza 2.5 rs silver - glider 2008 Subaru WRX STI white - bar of soap or the sti 2006 Honda element silver - bento (Japanese for box) 2024 vw id.4 Black - ghost, because it was gone for a month at the dealership after we purchased it.

My spouse had a suped up Challenger named Gurtrude. It was a funny reaction when people saw it for the first time. They expected a beater.

S. S. Niggress (still going strong)

"Chaser" because we live out in the country and use it to pick up our dogs who sometimes wander off and we have to go retrieve. Also, because it's a Chevy. It's Chevy Chase_r_.

I have named my computer.

cobalt is a chevy

my 05 Subaru obxt is named Knox because i had a knock/pre-ignition issue before i got it fixed up :p

death cab for cutie

My cars are named after the pokemon they most closely resemble. Ferroseed and Snorlax. They each have a sticker of said pokemon.

My current car is named Lizzie, after Tin Lizzie, despite the fact that it’s in great shape. The first car I had was a rusted out ‘93 Impreza we called Tin Lizzie. So when I got my newest car and the license plate started with LZZ, I took it as a sign to bring the name back.

baby car

We have a big family and have named ours:

• Beast = 2004 Ford Excursion
• Burgundy = 2011 Honda Odyssey (dark red)
• Bus = 2004 Ford Econoline E350

It never gets old yelling down the hall "to the beast!" :D

I had a 2002 Ford ranger that I named Strider.

Renault Vivaro. She's called Julie. Julie Vandrews. Also know as me Julie.

My wife names hers Otto after Otto Hightower from Fire & Blood because she has a Dodge Durango Citadel.

I like it because it sounds similar to "auto"

Had a bright blue Twingo, called it the smurfette. Now have a slightly more boring black Dacia, name of Lady Blackbird.

Hyperion, Hype for short.

We own a Rose Gold Fiat 500 electric, aptly named Lady Penelope.

Curious to see if anyone will spot the correct reference:)

I had an old little red Toyota Yaris that I called Jennifer, because it looked like a Jennifer to me.

Now I have a dark blue Ford Focus that I call James for pretty much the same reason.

I... don't seem to name cars like you other folks do.
