The naming scheme we followed, is based on the first letter of the car's brand—so for example, a Volvo gets a name starting with 'V', like Vincent.
Anyone else done/do this? If so, what was your car + name + naming scheme?

I theme the name based on the car. It could be the model, or it could be what it is known for.
I had a VW GTI named “Gertie”.
Currently I have a Subaru STI named “Satori”, and a Hyundai Ioniq 5 named “Electra”.

I name my bicycles.
Steely Fran is my touring and every day ride (she's a Salsa Vaya, a steel-frame gravel bike)
Moon Unit is my fat-tire bike for snow, dirt, and rockhopping fun.

I've named mine after Immortan Joe's "wives" in Fury Road.
My first one was yellow and ancient so had quite a short life expectancy (a 2003 Suzuki Ignis, bought in 2020) so it became Splendid.
Next a white Fiat Panda, The Dag.
Now I have an electric in silver (I didn't have a choice of colour) so I decided to sort of break the pattern and named it Ms. Giddy after the teacher of the "wives".
Hopefully the next one will be red and will be called Capable.
Trying to think of an appropriate vehicle to name "Toast the Knowing"

1970 Chevrolet Impala: Liberty (I bought it from a guy in Liberty, KY).
1997 Nissan 200SX SE-R: Dot (It was Pacific Blue)
2003 Acura TL: Sally (Generic name for a generic car)
2014 Camry LE: Pearl (It was Cosmic Mica Gray which gave the car a pearlescent sheen).
I currently have a 2019 Camry Hybrid XLE, but have yet to name it. I'm leaning toward "Betty", because the car has so many warnings, alarms, and notifications that I feel like I'm being bitched at when I drive it.
I have owned several cars over the years that I never named. My absolute favorite car I've ever owned was a 1985 Corolla GT-S that I raced in Pro Solo for a few years and it never received a name. The next car I owned was a 1992 Sentra SE-R and it never got a name either. Also had a 1969 Chevelle that I drag raced in my teen years, but no name there.

These are both excellent names. A+

wrote on last edited by [email protected]A couple years ago I had a neighbor named Patrick, and although we didn't have assigned parking at my apartment, we all tended to gravitate to the same spot regardless if others were available, and I parked next to Patrick's car nearly every everyday.
Wife starts calling our car "SpongeBob" cuz it's always next to Patrick.
To this day, as we're doing things like leaving a store forgetful of where we parked, she'll say something like "where's SpongeBob?"
