Now I'd love to chat but gotta go wax my Miata (Peggy). :D Well, darn it- I was thinking the exact opposite, and his name would be "Fred." wakeech 03-20-2003, 02:32 PM Originally posted by Elara his name would be "Fred." FRED??? :confused: that's hardly a name befitting an RX... it should be something sexy, powerful, and dynamic... like, Andrew :p ahahaha... jk elara ;) :D chenpin 03-20-2003, 03:13 PM YES!! Andrew is a dam fine name. hint hint ;) Elara 03-20-2003, 03:57 PM Originally posted by wakeech FRED??? :confused: that's hardly a name befitting an RX... it should be something sexy, powerful, and dynamic... like, Andrew :p ahahaha... jk elara ;) :D Hey, the most gorgeous man I have ever seen (aside from my husband, if he reads this) was named Fred- unfortunately for me, he was also gay. So naming my car "Fred" would be a very high compliment. but Andrew's good too- though my brother-in-law might think I was naming it after him, which would be odd... med_mx6 03-20-2003, 04:06 PM is it me or aren't all pieces of fine machinery considered to be female? :D molly is my mx-6. my wife's BMW we named "cliff" since that was the name of the salesman (that we liked). to me, your car's name should be a pet name or of the gender (to which you have a preference). after all, don't you LOVE your car? roxanne is a great name... i might have to "steal" it (and shorten it to roxy). ;) eccles 03-20-2003, 04:27 PM Originally posted by med_mx6 is it me or aren't all pieces of fine machinery considered to be female?My wife's Miatas, and her 626 before them, have all been male. My cars have always been gender-neutral - the 10AE was "the blue toy" and the RX-8 will continue that moniker. Our Explorer is just "Stinky." I think it's male, but I haven't gotten underneath to check. ;) Elara 03-20-2003, 07:04 PM Our Probe was Trish and our BMW is Alexandra. However, my Festiva, when I still had it, had no name but was definitely a boy. I still think my RX-8 will be a boy too. And I'm still going to name him "Fred"(as long as it fits him-we'll see when he gets here). And I'm not really fond of Roxanne, no offense guys- I just couldn't name my car after a hooker :p retrodog 03-20-2003, 07:12 PM Well of course she will be called Roxy. That's a given. My other gals are: 96 Kawi GPZ110, Jeanie 85 Magna 1100, Maggie 92 Katana 750, Suzy 99 Miata, Peggy Machines are just supposed to be female. :cool: CraziFuzzy 03-20-2003, 07:53 PM I'd agree that most machines are supposed to be female, but I have has some that were just male, no doubt about it... my '68 Bug was Freddy, my '66 MicroBus... definately Male... was Willie... and my buddy's 67 bug was Walley... but my ex's convertable bug was definately female, Josephine... being white with red interior... the thing practically had a bow on it... hehe... None of my newer cars have had names though, it just seems like newer cars (well, most at least) lack the personality to warrant a name... only time will tell i suppose. Strider 03-20-2003, 07:56 PM to me, your car's name should be a pet name or of the gender (to which you have a preference). after all, don't you LOVE your car? In that case my cars name would have to be Mercedes (http://web.ics.purdue.edu/~mbender/Projects/DSCN0017.jpg). But I don't think would be too fitting for a Mazda... hmmm time to get a new pet I guess- SinGin 03-21-2003, 12:45 AM I'd prefer "my baby". It expresses affection and is gender neutral for an "it". :p MrWigggles 03-21-2003, 03:07 AM Eleanor rael 03-21-2003, 06:41 AM Its a bloody car!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!! Machinery!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 'Doris' rael Wing 03-21-2003, 08:18 AM Only one car can be named Eleanor, ah I want one...... more than I want an 8! Strider 03-21-2003, 10:08 AM When I hear Doris I think of my old wrinkly bitchy grandma... Rael, I'm not saying Doris is a bad name... I just have a different name association with it- m477 03-21-2003, 11:22 AM Sports cars are generally pretty, tempermental, and you spend all your money on them. So of course they're female. :p sheylen 03-21-2003, 11:26 AM Originally posted by m477 Sports cars are generally pretty, tempermental, and you spend all your money on them.

Yep... But have you ever said the wrong name of a women when in bed? If I call my 8 "Eleanor", I hope she won't know the difference. ;) -Mr. Wigggles SinGin 03-21-2003, 01:14 PM You're going to get into bed with your 8?! :eek: Heh, j/k. :D kittychester 03-21-2003, 01:47 PM my "boy toy" will be named Fritz after my Jack Russel Terrier who at 15 years still runs around and chases fox as if he is still a pup Master Phu 03-21-2003, 01:51 PM My car will be named Kobe. To show that it's cocky, flashy, and a showoff. They also both wear the number 8. MPester 03-23-2003, 07:33 PM With the front license plate on, CHUCKY would be the perfect name for mine :D Schneegz 03-24-2003, 09:40 PM I always give my cars, motorcycles and guns feminine names. I just can't immagine feeling that kind of affection for a male. :) SPDFRK 03-24-2003, 10:16 PM Originally posted by ZoomZoomH OH, MY, GAWD! THAT DUDE IS SO GHEY!!!! :D No he's just English.
