October 2nd is 'National Name Your Car Day'. There is no real origin or reason why October 2nd was chosen, but it's the perfect day to give your favorite car a name if it doesn't already have one. We spend a lot of time in our cars, and caring for them, so they deserve a name. Just remember, cars have feelings – so don't give your 'ride' an embarrassing name!
Car Name Suggestions
- Guys with 'muscle cars' or sports cars should go with strong names that reflect the car and the owner.
- “Chick” cars need sweet names.
- Luxury cars probably need a formal or regal-sounding name.
Famous Movie Car Names
Some fun movie car names are familiar to us. These include:
- The Love Bug
- Lightning McQueen from Cars
- Kit from Knight Rider
- General Lee from The Dukes of Hazzard
- Bandit from Smokey and the Bandit.
Our Car Names

| Our Cars - The Pumpkin and the Super-Beetle |
We have had a lot of cars over the years, but our favorite were the Volkswagen Beetles. The last ones we had included a Super-Beetle (the blue one in the picture) and our son had the Orange one.
The Orange VW was the only car with a real name. We called it ~ appropriately ~ 'The Pumpkin'.
Do you have a name for your car(s)? Come tell me what kind of car and what you call it.
Happy 'National Name-Your-Car Day'.
