Car Related Baby Names. Ideas?

FRDGAL · 29-04-2008, 11:40 AM

Can anyone think of any car related baby names for either boy or girl? I have a couple in mind but would like atleast 5 for each gender. It doesn't have to be just Ford related, but car related in general. I've searched the net and can't find anything much. It can be a mixture of anything or even unusual. Any ideas?

(Anything except Shelby - that reminds me too much of Whoosha's dog lol)

Eleanor, or Ellen for short.

Wonder where I got that from....

Thats all I have.

personally i think a car related name is a great idea for a dog, not a kid
(especially One that is the name of a car in a movie, not an actual car)

Unless you name the kid after a person from the automotive industry, for example Michael if you really loved the F1 driver, or Chris after Chris Bangle if you’re a huge BMW fan
Just don’t give the kid a name that he will get picked on when growing up just because its after a car you like

just my opinion

Well there's always ford prefect

MotherNatureVer2 · 29-04-2008, 12:10 PM

Ive always liked Laine....

How about Henry.....

Will have a think ;)

TZENU · 29-04-2008, 12:15 PM

As MN said how bout Henry Ford (Surname)... or a girl Carol Shelby (Surname)...

Make sure you give them those middle names though

Nickxb · 29-04-2008, 12:16 PM

what about stang for a boy

**Peuty** · 29-04-2008, 12:17 PM

What about Superleggera?

Koenigsegg could be a good name too?

swapper · 29-04-2008, 12:19 PM

Carol for a girl, the idea of naming a her after Carol Shelby, but then she is stuck with a name that i dont think anyone under the age of 50 has anymore.....and chances are she wont give 2 hoots about cars, but will be stuck with an old name

Henry on the other hand i kinda like

Falconfan · 29-04-2008, 12:26 PM

Call him Clevelend :-)... Or Mark I (Mach 1). You could call your daughter EFI (after Effie). I have to agree that including a car make in their name will cause them grief come school time.

DayTE · 29-04-2008, 12:48 PM

Might want to be careful. Some of the car type names can sound like a stripper's name (no offence to any strippers out there).

e.g. Mercedes, Lexus.

When ever I hear Mercedes for a name though I can't help think bogan. As in Mercedes Corby, Shappelle Corbys sister.

BA GT-HO · 29-04-2008, 12:53 PM

God, please no car names for a child!

Like T6Ute said they all sound like stripper names or bogan names!!

I like smokey though after smokey yunick who was the first to use nos in cars, invented the flowbench and did a whole bunch of other stuff. He even built a 7/8 scale nascar, raced it and all the officials wondered why it was so much faster than the other cars even though it looked like it should

for a girl though porsha after imho the greatest supercars.
