dear internet,

I got a car! It's a cute little Toyota Yaris, dark blue with a black interior. It is the joy of my life, and now I want to name it. So, what should I name my car?

    For some reason I am inclined to 'pig'. Or 'Fred'. Sorry :)... it's late at night...

    i refer to my car, which i only paid 900 euros for, as sweet ride. sometimes she breaks down. she always has pink, purple, and yellow stripes. plus sticky chicklet-like things glued on the side. hideously funny.if my car can be sweet ride, yours can certainly be shadow...

    Definitely Xerxes... Haven't we discussed Edward Gorey at some point before?

    Although plain names often fit interesting vehicles. My friend has a beatiful old 1964 Morris J4 Dormobile conversion... And it's called "Harold". But I like Xerxes.

    Names for cars should always be ironic. Keep that in mind.
