Having just got our blue 4 seater Plus 4 home, my wife suggest we call it 'Bluebell' but after a bit of thought, I reckon it is a more masculine car than that, so have come up with the name 'Mac' - it aliterates well! We're thinking whether it will be permanent now.
It's a funny thing about giving cars a name, not all of them seem to take to it, but at least two of my previous MGs did, the silver TD I owned for over 30 years was called 'Victoria', and the pre war MGSV 4 seater was an excellent 'Albert', whilst a previous TD was 'Angelina'. Odd really.
When I first met Budster, he was keen to introduce me to 'Stanley' before the gorgeous Lady Budster. Both impressed me.
What and why have you named your Morgans over the years?

We seem to have a bit of a theme in our house as we like cats and the recent ones (we have 6) all have a name beginning with 'M'. Before we bought our car I had always wanted a Morgan since I was 12 and the best I could do at the time was to call the cat 'Morgan'. Two years later we found ourselves in a position to have a Morgan and so somehow to distinguish the car from the cat we called the car 'Morgan Morgan'. I know, it's barking (not appropriate for cats!) but the Morgan eccentricity is alive and well here!

My Morgan 4 seater is called "Little Jeannie" after my late mother who has funded the purchase. So every time I drive her the memories of her flood back  PS:- My partner Suzi' s last two cars were called Bluebell

I'm still in love with my M3W so I don't call her names.

When I went from a +8 to a +4 I had 'Festina Lente' put in the licence plate bottom banners, within minutes Rob H. Had called it Tina and that stuck, now I have a Silver Grey (Aston Martin Meteorite Grey) +4 and have often pondered a suitable name, being in Leicester Silver Fox was suggested but it did not seem to suit somehow?
