All of my cars have had names. My first car was a 65 Rambler dubbed Daisy, which had first belonged to my mother. Then there was Beercan, my little 78 Honda Civic; Rollergirl (pre-"Boogie Nights", the 84 Honda CRX. My little Mitsubishi was dubbed Newton by my late stepmother. My first "nice" car was Hunter, the green Grand Am. The Kia Sportage was Ripley, after the Aliens ass-kicker.
The minivan hasn't named itself yet. It will, when the time is right.
