Silly Nothings of Tamika Paige: What's in a Name?

What's in a Name?

My car needs a name.

I've had her for a month, and I still can't think of one.

I know that she's a girl...but past that, I'm drawing a blank.

Can you help me?

I used to be a Big Sister and my "little sister" would always call my white honda Nora. She was 7 and I just thought it was so cute that she named my car ;); 11:03 AM

Jonathan E. said...: This blog makes me a little sad, because I remember the day when we named my car Traci after either you or Alison suggested that name. So therefore, Traci was born and I've had her for 3 years now. She has just grown up so fast. Tear.

That being said, I think your car should have a foreign name. I think since it is white it maybe should be scandinavian, and defnitely male. Since you are female you have to give your car a male name. Just like males have to give their car a girl name. So my suggestions are:

1. Soren
2. Leif
3. Neils
4. Ollie
5. Thor/Thorbert

Of course you could also go with The Bandit or El Bandito, and call him Bandy for short. I always thought I would like a car called Bandit, but Traci was definitely a Traci and not a "Bandit"; 8:11 AM

lucy was always my favorite car name. i used to love saying to my dear ol' jeep "come on, luc" in a tone that joe junior would have used. ah, the good ol' days. i even almost named rita mae 'lucy II' but i thought she deserved her own identity.

here are a few other options for variety's sake:

rhoda

rhonda (similar name, but with a totally different vibe)

maybel

bernice

olivette (you could call her olive like popeye's girlfriend)

petunia (i have a plant named this...she's not a petunia)

i could keep going but i'll spare you. obviously i have way to much fun naming my posessions :); 12:13 PM
