Naming of the caravan

We name ours- I name my cars too. Only drawback is they become too much part of the family and its horrible when you sell them on , I cry when they have to go :-(

We don't want to name our car but we class the van as a new member to the family  . 

Ours is called the caravan

Ours is called the caravan

That is strange, could be confusing as ours has the same name!

All of our caravans have had the same name - "The Van". Never believed in getting sentimental in case it got stolen etc. Seems a bit daft to give a name to a lump of metal. Same with our cars - either "my car" or for my wife "your car".

The caravan is boring. We would like it to feel a big part of us and the kids. We have named her Poppy! 

We have no name for the caravan but I call the hitchlock.....Alfred

and when driving I call the cruise control....Tom.

Involving the kids in all things caravan related is great and it sounds as though naming your new addition will just add to that involvement and add to their fun and enjoyment, so go for it, I say.

We had a classic VW Camper before we switched to an Eriba, and we named the Camper as like you, it seemed part of the family.

Enjoy!

Ours is called Gordon!

We always name our caravans   We also have naming ceremonies ..... "I name this caravan (name) may god bless her ... and all who burn toast in her"     We don't smash a bottle on the outside though
