Naming your family’s cars
If you have multiple cars in the family, consider coming up with a theme for all of them. You could name them after characters from a favorite movie or TV show, or use alliteration to with your last name, like “The Benson Bomber” or “The Murphy Machine.”
Fun fact
In the early 20th century, car manufacturers used to give their cars unique names like “The Studebaker,” “The Packard,” or “The Ford Model T.” It wasn’t until the introduction of the mass-produced Ford Model A that cars started going by model numbers instead of names.
For most of us, cars are part of our daily lives. If you’re in your car a lot, maybe it’s time to give it a special name!
