Naming of the caravan

Ours is called Gordon!

Gordon   Our caravans are always female ..... although our friend has a caravan called Dave 

Colin of course .....

Actually Colin the third .....

Our caravan (Amara) is named Amey.

Ours is named Florence - we go with the Flo.  

I've just bought my first motorhome... Yay! Soooo excited... Pick her up on the 27th... I've named 'her' already!  '  H'y ' is her name... Used to be my nickname for years (short ish for Helen) and the reg is HY ... So she was 'meant to be'! 

Like many others, "the van". The towcar is "the Kuga" and the OH's runabout was called "the Getz". Its replacement, an i20, is a little more difficult to name requiring two syllables. Answers on a postcard, please.

I find the naming of inanimate objects a bit bizarre. I think if I felt the desire to do it I would seek psychiatric help.

Buildings, boats, planes and trains - I could go on - are named. Four of my six motorhomes were named, two having the name on them in vinyl, and one having a name best not repeated on this forum. The current one is a van with no name but sadly is not as tough as the Clint Eastwood character.

The dealers attitude to those bearing their name in vinyl was much better than those that were just a regsitration plate. Having a name was also a hit with the kids who helped name three of the vans.

I draw the line, though, at referring to the vans by name on forums.

We bought our first caravan last July as our 30th wedding anniversary present to ourselves. So we named her Pearl.

The nissan x trail we bought to tow  Pearl is called Davinia (her Sat nav voice sounds posh and we felt Davinia a suitable sounding posh name)

My tiny little suzuki alto is called Pops, because she's only used to pop out somewhere local.

Beginning to think I now sound a bit odd and need to get away in Pearl more often.

Yeap named our Van and our car.
