How to name your car

Before we jump into our list, we want to let you in on a few crucial tips for car-naming success. Keep these in mind while you’re deciding:

Have a good time: Whether you want to make your family laugh with pride when they hear it or cry out in pain each time you say its name, choosing a nickname for your car should be a blast.

Don’t be afraid to get creative: If you grew up battling your siblings in Mario Kart every night after school, a name like Luigi or Yoshi could be your best move. If you want to try something different, don’t hold back! Make an impression by pulling up to parties in the Green Reaper or Sir Limes-A-Lot (don’t worry, we won’t ask!).

Let the name choose you: Picking a car name can be a lot like picking a wand—it’s not always in your control. If you’re about to bring your beautiful car home and the name Esmerelda pops into your head, don’t question it!

Last (but not least), consider the gender of your car. Some people refuse to pick a boy’s name, others just know that their car is a male. Other people think the whole car-gender business is silly, and they’d happily lend their ride a gender-neutral name like Avocado or Dragonfly!

Whichever way you’re leaning, we’ll cover the whole spectrum in our list below.
