My Car is Coming!!!

I just checked the MINI USA website, and my car is currently crossing the pond. Which means that I need to get to work on picking out a name. Here's some background information:

My car is a boy, and he's very very British. In fact, he's british racing green. Here's some ideas I've come up with so far:

Alfred
Alistair
Blaine
Cecil
Collin
Geoffery
Harry
Maxwell
Niles
Rodney
Sinjin
Spencer
Stuart
Wesley

I'm kind of liking Alistair. What do you guys think?

P.S. I know naming my car is extreme cheese, but I can't help it. It's a MINI for Pete's sake!

When I think Alistair, I think about "You Can't Do that On Television," then I think about Alanis and Dave Coulier . . . I like Collin

amber, after reading your post on 12/7 i've decided that maybe i'd come out of the closet and expose myself as one of the lurkers. however, i don't know if stumbling onto this blog and posting to it on the same day really warrants me labeling myself as a lurker. in any event, being a guy, anytime a woman uses the word 'coming' in a phrase, it never fails to get my attention... unfortunately, this time it was used in terms of an automobile. but onto the name thing... if you own a cooper, i'd name it cecil, because cecil cooper was a baseball player who played from 1971-1987 for both the red sox and the brewers. or if you don't like that one 'austin' would be a good name for obvious reasons.

Well hello Cryptic, you are certainly entertaining! Champ and Tiger both work well, as do Vixen and Hot Lips. Aw hell, let's be honest, I'd probably answer to Hey You.

You are very sweet!
