The naming scheme we followed, is based on the first letter of the car's brand—so for example, a Volvo gets a name starting with 'V', like Vincent.

Anyone else done/do this? If so, what was your car + name + naming scheme?

TIL: people name their cars. Honest question, unless you have several identical cars, why?

Ita just a nice guesture i think, like its something used everyday to get you from A to B. The car is a part of the family too, so it deserves a name ☺️

So are shoes :-)

I think I only genuinely liked one, maybe two cars I ever owned. Typically it's just a necessary part of life and a massive waste of money, but it is exciting when it's new.

Because I am a human that pack bonds with everything I see

I think I'm particularly susceptible to pack bond with stupid stuff. I have pack bonded with a damn computer mouse at one point.

it's the little things that make me happy.
