“What’s in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.”
– spoken by Juliet from Romeo and Juliet

Do you have a name for your whip (car) or mode of transportation? If so, whatโ€™s the name?

Prompt created by yours truly. 
Feel free to use any prompts for September that I post and/or tag me.
Iโ€™d love to read your responses

I’ve got a black Prius. It’s the third black Prius I’ve owned. Prior to that, I had black Honda Civics (two). I drive a lotโ€ฆ and I donโ€™t even like driving.

Black cars just look fucking sleek and mysterious. I’m also told that it helps with resale values too, but don’t quote me on that.

Because my car is black, when it gets dirty it becomes very apparent and I have to stay on top of getting it washed and detailed.

When I see a black Escalade with limo tints, I wonder who’s hiding in there. But when I see a white Escalade, I’m like… meh. Boring.

Names for my car(s):

  • black beauty
  • midnight bitch
  • noir queen
  • night ryder
  • black panther

    My lil 16 yr old black Kia Rio 5 is named Spunky. Although the wife accidentally shoveled off the car antenna, so now i a m down to 4 local stations I rarely listen to, a cd player that functions when it wants to, AC/Heat that takes longer than most new car to cool down/heat up and other minute quirks. I have stickered this car up as well which downgraded its worth even further in regard to a trade in ๐Ÿ˜†

      16 years is a long time, you must do great maintenance on it!

        Yeah i don’t wait to get things fixed to keep the car running. The radio/cd player are less important to me. I bought her new as well with zero miliege, after 16 years she’s still 20,000 miles under 100,000

    Love your car names! Since my Jeep Wrangler is Sahara model, I named her after Shaharazad. One of my favorite heroines from the classic book One Thousand and One Arabian Nights. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

    Three black Priuses in a row is commitment, and noir queen is easily the best of the list. The bit that made me nod was driving a lot while not actually liking driving โ€” that is most of our road trips. Also very true about black cars showing every speck of dirt; ours looks fine for roughly one afternoon.

    Before it got totaled, we called our Honda Odyssey ‘Homer’.

    I wanted to call my Jeep ‘White Privilege’, but the Missus put the kibosh on that…

    As for black (or dark-colored) cars, that’s a big no for me. During the summer, black just absorbs more heat.

    Then again, my last car’s AC was dead for the final few years, which might have influenced me…

      homer on an odyssey, NICE!!
