You do realize that in the online world, "Snert" is an acronym for "Sexually Neurotic Egregiously Retarded Twit.

I had thought of buying a yellow one and came up with the name: Short Bus. Your license plate could be SHRT BUS.

Penfold is the name of my 05 MCS "O CRUMBS" is his plate. Glad to see I'm not the only DM fan. My Classic is "Tink" short for Tinkerbell.

My baby "spoke to me" after I got her, and she got her new exhaust. She grumbles and roars...and is thusly called, "LilTiger".

I would think you'd need to see him/her first, and bond with "it" before you can think of an appropriate name - but perhaps that's yet another thread

"Did you name your MINI before/after taking delivery?"

Mine has been tight-lipped as to what his/her name is since I picked him/her up yesterday. *shrug* I figure that he/she will tell me his/her name when he/she is good and ready
