Am I right to assume it's Nissan who would have the rights to the Traveller name?

The logical thing to do, as we have had the Cooper S is to call it the Cooper T. That way BMW wouldn't need to use the 'Traveller' name in their marketing, but it would still be affectionally known as the 'Cooper Traveller' by its fans.
Although if they were to release a turbo version that would make it the Cooper ST and I'm not sure how that would sit with Ford's range of performance cars.

Alternatively how about the 'Mini MO' ( MO as in Morris Oxford) as a nod towards the original Morris Traveller.

Mini pikey? well it is another name for traveller!
I think it could be called the Mini Estate or the shooting brake (my dad used to call all estate cars that). call me old fashioned but is that not what it is ?
Bini?
Mini Grande?
Mini tardis? for dr who fans out there
Mini touring as all BMW estates are called

I hear that the Traveller will be available with 15 spare tyres, and an option to have your driveway resurfaced at a very reasonable cost as 'we have a bit left over, see.'
