Help with name & clip art

My first Mini! Picked it up June 21 from Downtown Mini in Orlando. Kids are grown - don't need a van or SUV any more. Husband and myself loving it. Need suggestions for a name and where do you all find that great clip art?

2007 BRG MCSa white top, bonnet stripes, mirror caps. Premium package, English Oak, Bridge Spoke Got European license plate (England) for front - S MINI007
(Couldn't resist using the 007 play on the year.)

"Nigel" has crossed my mind.

FYI - Ordered license from Custom Engraving Co. in Melbourne, FL - came in less than a week

Thanks for help

Hey Pam, Congrats on the MINI and Welcome to NAM. If you haven't done so already, make sure to check us out at Sunshine MINIs . We are a pretty active bunch with alot of us in the Orlando area. We have a great event coming up at the end of September call Mickey and MINI

As far as the name, I like Nigel also. We actually voted that name for our Sunshine MINI mascot!!

What exactly are you looking for as far as the clip art goes?

Here is THREAD with all the "pixar" MINIs like in my signature. Most of us just find one from there and do a little cut and paste on them. If you need help, just post up and someone will help!

Hi Pam and welcome to NAM!! Congrats on your MINI - it sounds beautiful. I like Nigel for a name....sometimes it takes a while for a name to surface and when it does, you know it's the right one...

While "Nigel" seems appropriate, I believe that someone on NAM has already named there MINI that. Perhaps that doesn't matter.

Another good name would be "Alister".

Reading the above immediately brings to mind, "Freedom" or one of its synonyms, "Deliverance". But then again, I like Nigel. Some other names to consider might be Alistair, Kingsley, or Dudley.

Oops! Almost forgot: Welcome aboard Pam! Nice to have you here.
