Any protocol for naming your new Jeep

Ladies and Gentlemen,

I am getting ready for a build to start within about 6 months and am already thinking about names. I have never named a vehicle before, but this Jeep will be different and I wanted to name it something special.

What about naming your Jeep after one of your children?

I looked all over the web and found where people name their children after their cars, which I found classless. But what about naming a vehicle after your child? Is that just as classless. Is that weird? Is that bad luck? Any thoughts?

LOL we named our GSD after Jack's dog, "Zero". We wanted a white GSD but couldn't find one. The name still stuck regardless. :yup: Halloween is our favorite thing ever. We even had a Halloween wedding. :crazyeyes:


I always stuck with female names and used a named that was relevant to something else in my life with all my other vehicles. But when it came to my JK I knew I was going with a silver and blue theme so I went with "R2" (R2-D2) since nothing else really fit. Just pick a name that has meaning to you in one way or another (could just be that you like the name). It's whatever you want it to be!

Named mine Minion. So it's Mackey's Minion. Not because it's yellow. Just because it's the only thing in my house that actually listens to me. :)

This is Téméraire;

He's grown up since http://wayalife.com/showthread.php?26663-Naming-your-Jeep/page4&highlight=temeraire

As our family is fond of Dragons Téméraire is named after a Dragon in the series of books written by NAOMI NOVIK. He listens to me and takes us where we want to go.

After replacing my transfer case, I think Money Pit is an appropriate name for mine. If it's not already taken.
