Provided they prove to deserve it, I give all my cars names. Some cars have no personality, and some have earned names through negative circumstances- I had an '89 Buick that was blue, and constantly gave me fuel-related stalling problems. My (non-profane) name for that car was "The Bluebird of Crappiness". I had a '73 Dart that someone named for me. Came out of my old apartment one day to find it had been "tagged"- Someone wrote the word "EYE" on the rear-quarter with a Sharpie. I don't know why, but it was her name from then on.

My old '84 244 was named Gretchen- no real reason. My '78 244 is named Katharine, after Katharine Hepburn. My next Volvo will be named Evelyn, after my girlfriend's mother- she's Swedish, and old but still rugged as hell.
