I need to name my BRZ

I don't normally name my cars, but my wife and daughters always name theirs: "Subie" the Legacy, "Fi-Fi" the Fiesta etc. So, after I got the BRZ my 22 year old daughter names it the "MLCM". I asked what that stands for and she says, "Mid-Life-Crises-Mobile". Worse than that is what my wife said.

I kept my 2004 Accord to drive in winter/bad weather when I bought the BRZ. So my wife complains that I neglect the Accord after "she" served me dependably, reliably, and faithfully for over 8 years. My wife asked why I washed the BRZ, when the poor Accord obviously needs care more than the BRZ- that still looked as clean to her as when I got it. Now my wife has given the BRZ a name: the "Bimbo".

So, I guess I need to give the BRZ a name to try to stop the family females from insulting it (and me). Is "Briz" good enough or is there a better name that I should use?

I always named my cars after girls names. The BRZ is Beatrice. But on the weekends she's Trixie. Mature during the work week, a whore on the weekends

My barber named it Betty. I think she picked that name to spite my obvious attachment to the car.
