what's in a name?

i finally settled on a name for my mini. i've had him since nov, but nothing ever stuck. so now my mcc has a rightful name: Nano. it makes so much sense! i don't know why i didn't think of that before.

anyone else care to share their name?

Nano's good. Very original, I like it!

There's been a running joke between Eeyore and I that the other woman's name is Samantha. Now it really is!

Tigger.

Is it a requirement to name your MINI? I'm just drawing a blank........

Isn't "nano" what Robin Williams used to say in the Mork and Mindy TV show?

My family chistened mine Minerva - it's apparently a combination of MINI and Nirvana, as well as being a Roman goddess of great things!

hmm, maybe. i named it Nano because it means super tiny (*10^-9 in scientific notation to be specific).

My gran's name was Joan and I bought my car with the inheritance she left to me - who needs a house when you've got a MINI?!

I know exactly what you mean, the money I saved up for my Mini should have really gone on a house but I just love cars and couldn't help myself. Looks like at least another 6 months living with my parents! Especially since Norberts insurance needs doing next month and its going to cost about £730.
