Anthropomorphizing your 86

How many of you give your vehicles names? And, do you have any names in mind for your 86/BRZ/FRS when you finally get it? Any particular reason for the name you chose?

I tend to name all of my vehicles for a variety of reasons.

Current vehicle: Lexus RX300
Name: Lex. This one seems rather obvious but my wife’s name is also Lex (Alexia) and it was her car first.

Current bike: Yamaha Roadstar 1600(drag pipes, ape hangers, slammed, solo seat)
Name Vicki. The V in Vicki is for the V-twin and Vicki is one of my wife’s, um, role-playing names.

Wife’s car: Scion tC
Name Randy. Wife named it Randy because she said that is how it makes her feel when she drives it. (No argument here)

Previous car: 88 Supra MkII Turbo
Name Cleo after Madame Cleo from those infamous commercials long ago. Reason: car was black, had a big butt (that would shake side-to-side in a fishtail), and it took all my money.

Previous bike: 80 KX650 LTD
Named Krystal after a gorgeous red-head that I had a crush on at the time(bike was red) and I loved to ride it everywhere.

The list goes on and on.

Planning on getting a White/Manual and so far the name Chloe keeps popping up for me. It may change once I drive her and her real personality forces a new name.
