What are you gonna name / nickname your Camaro (and a girl or a boy?) - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I was thinking about a name for my 09 camaro not sure anybody else planning on naming their car and should it be a boy or a girl

*GTAHVIT* · 07-17-2008, 12:12 PM

As a former sailor I hold to the tradition that ships are women. So, I'll be naming her along the same lines.... I know FbodFather thinks that V-8's are male. But I have to disagree. If an aircraft carrier with all it's might can be a woman.... I'm perfectly comfortable with my Camaro being one.

Now, as for the name... I'm not quite there yet. I probably won't know that until I see her for the first time.

I agree with gtahvit.

My cars have always had female names. This one will be no differnet.

My wife is starting to get jealous. She says I talk about this car when I wakeup and before I go to sleep.

What is wrong with 2 women in your life?

*Mr. Wyndham* · 07-17-2008, 12:29 PM

It's a boy for me...you just can't talk to women about some things.....

I haven't decided on a name, though. It'll come to me when I take delivery of it.

After much thought and consideration.

I have decided to name my camaro Jedrek. It means Strong and Manly, and it is Polish origin.

Really? I thought since you had the goal of making it Pink and Black you might give it more of a feminine name.

Just curious.

IM leaning towards the beast. IN honor of my dying 92 pathfinder.
or I agree with the girld names. If I can find one that matches her. plus a girl can be a beast too right?

Merlin....

What else do you call a Black on Black beast.

z28camaro2471 · 07-17-2008, 02:07 PM

I always refer to my cars as "she". There are just too many similarities...pleasure, pain, $, etc.

diddiyo · 07-17-2008, 02:08 PM

I never understood why you would give a "thing" a name. I'll call it car or maybe camaro, but won't refer to it as "she" or "he"

Camaro Lives On · 07-17-2008, 02:09 PM

Even though I wont be getting one anytime soon (age and money are my downfalls), if I were getting one.... uh... Scott... and It'd obviously be a dude!!

bouncertime · 07-17-2008, 02:09 PM

All my friends call my Blazer Jimmy, which is also my name.

My dad calls his GMC duelly BuRT for Big Red Truck and his Garmin GPS Martha. So I will have to wait till I see what the Camaro's personality is. But if I paint it like the pick in my sig, I might name it Smokey.

The camaro is more than a "thing" to most of us.
