Name This Car!

Naming cars is almost as popular as naming houseplants. Everyone is doing it, especially chicks. Since I'm not a big "car namer," my mom has always named my cars for me. In my younger years, I had Beluga (a lovely aqua-tinted Toyota MR2.I was the coolest chick in high school). Now, I pop around the city in Topper (a friendly blue VW Cabrio).

Anyway, I have a friend who takes the naming of her car very seriously. A car's name must show off its personality, sound pleasant and not be utterly ludicrous. It's essentially like naming a child. This same friend currently is pondering the name of her new-to-her, green VW Jetta. She has a few names in mind, but could use some inspiration. What says green Jetta to you? Hopefully, this picture will arouse you to dream up a fabulous name and then respond below.

Let the games begin!

How about Kraus, in reference to the sassy German housekeeper on the hit TV show Benson? (at least, I think she was German...)

Kermit is too easy. And was taken by my car for the two days I tried naming it.

My cousin once had a car named Bowie. I thought that was pretty cool. And David Bowie is pretty popular in Germany.

Oh, oh...I got it! Hasselhoff! Germans love that guy! It must be named Hasselhoff! Debate closed.
