    I always name my cars, and my parents do too. My Aspire was unofficially named Eeyore but I generally call it "the doodlebug". I also have a parts Aspire appropriately dubbed Scrappy. My Cobalt is Daisy. My first car was an '84 Cougar named Freddie (as in Freddie Mercury).

    My cars all had names:
    Blueberry, my first car, blue Honda hatchback (I was living in Maine, Blueberry country!)
    Black Stallion, black Honda Civic, had more horse power than Blueberry and took me some time to adjust, lol

    And now I have Carmine, my red Prius. Carmine means red, and after a 3 month wait, this "car is all mine." lol.

    Can't think of any other inanimate objects I've named, though.

    Sometimes they have formal names but I never use them. My car is officially Sectumsempra and my external hard drive is Squishy.

    I have never named a car... nor do I refer to it as a she or a he. My mum named my jeep "Olive", though. That word just puts a bad taste in my mouth.

    My computer is named "The Guru", though...

    My first car was a 1990 Ford Escort... Ellie Escort.
    My 2nd was a 1995 Mercury Cougar ... Jasmine, Jazz for short.
    My ex-husband had a black 1994 Lincoln Mark VIII called Storm.

    After I moved to Phoenix, I traded Jazz in and got a 2000 Dodge Lemon, err, Intrepid which I forget the name of, as it was referred to as "#(#)@ P.O.S." more often than anything else.

    Hubby and I now have a 2004 Mustang named Dixie and a 2006 Impala named Daisy.

    I will miss you forever, my sweet Scooter Bug. You were my best friend. 9/21/1995 - 1/23/2010
    Goodbye, Oreo. Gone too soon. 4/2003 - 9/12/2011.
    Farewell & Godspeed, sweet Jadie Francine. You took a piece of my heart with you. 11/2002 - 8/8/2016
