Nope. I do not name things that don't have brains.

I never loved any object. Don't love my car. I like it because it is mine, but if it got run over by a tank while parked and no one was hurt, I would get over it once the insurance check came in.

Usually it's just "The S", sometimes it's "My S" and once in a while its "My little S".

It's "my little car", or "my blue baby".

Old fat S. I think I remember this from before I got the car, however. Probably
not a good thing.

My dad named cars all the time...I never felt the need to.
Then last year he passed away and on his birthday I found my car.
If he were here today, he'd either call it "baby blue" or "bluebird".

I call it 'the s'. As in, "Son (17 yrs old), would you like to go for a ride in the S?

What do you think his reply is?

I refer to it as my "baby". My +1 likes to refer to it as Lil Pepe. A reference to the "Little Mule" in the movie Romancing the Stone. That is the Bell Maker's vehicle that they used to make their escape from his village.

Stiletto is her name because she is sexy like the shoes and cuts like the knife.
