Ever since I can remember we've always named our cars. Every person I've ever lived with has done the same.

I can remember one named Prudence
one named RJ
one named Clemintine
(I dont have stories as to why they were named this- N I guess I was too young to ask.- But Im calling my aunt tomorrow to find out why? surreal

My mom use to have an old Datson Truck named Fickle.
(It never wanted to start in the morning. Unless he felt like it.) I hated that fucking truck- never did get me to school on time.
Thats another thing- How can you figure out if your car should have a girl or boy name?
My Other aunt had a copper car named Penny.- *girl*

My first car was GIGI- ??? dont remember why- wish I did.*girl
I named my second car Jewle cuz it had sparkley paint.
*girl

I got a brand spanking new van in 2000 and my kids named it Squirtle cuz of the color. Aqua
Pokemon *boy*- I think???

Whats your cars name?

Urm yeah I do that

My car is Goober (because the last three reg numbers are GBU - aren't I original).

My main computer is Prue, my decent laptop is Piper and my second laptop is Phoebe (an annoying bitch that causes no end of grief).

Thats about it.... and sorry for any Charmed fans annoyed by the Phoebe ref wink But damn just so fitting IMO

Racey was my father's Camero Z-28 (he liked to pretend he had money whatever ). Then once reality set in, we got Big Red. I haven't officially named his current car... but as I'm feeling increative right now I'm going to go with Little Red. tongue

That was when I was a kid... but I still do the naming thing. My dish washer's name is Kenny. (He's a Kenmore, heh).

no, if the object in question wishes to tell me its name it will. oddly, i have found that, unlike people, the souls of inanimate objects understand the inherent power in true names and are not so quick to give them away.

with that said, i occasionally nick name things in response to how they treat me. for example, my iBook (who as i type is murmuring quietly to itself about me talking about it) is called The Finn. if you read enough modern fiction you'll get it, and so far The Finn seems to be flattered by the comparison. i've never asked it for its real name though, i should think that would be rather rude.

In reality all atoms in any oject vibrate, thus nothing is inanimate unless it is below absolute zero, howver, some argue that there is still vibration present but this slow vibration would be undectable by today's standards.

My first Mustang, a '73, was called The Beast. It was far from it, actually. Other's called it Kermit because it was green...medium metallic green exterior with Avocado interior(yuck!).

I haven't found a suitable name for my '69 Mustang Mach 1 yet.

My computer is named Psychofreak.

My '68 Malibu was named "Roxy" because she was a badass chik who'd punch you in the face quicker than ask your name.

My '50 Schwinn is named "Skully" because it has a chrome skull mounted on the front fender.
