-
Consider the make and model of your car. The make and model of your car will likely determine its overall aesthetic and the ~vibe~ it gives off. If you have a sleek and sporty convertible, you may want to go with an equally cool and suave name, for example. Likewise, if you have a hulking SUV, you might go with a strong and dominant name.

- You can also use your car’s license plate or country of origin as inspiration. Maybe the plate letters spell out a word that can inspire your name, or you can give an Italian name to an Italian car, for example.

Reflect on what you’ll be using the car for. If you’re using the car for a specific purpose, then you could choose your name based on the usage. If you’re planning to use the car for some road trips or camping, choose an adventurous name like “Chaser” or “Stargazer.” If you’ll primarily be using the vehicle for work, try a success-inspired name like “Boss Man” or “Cash.” [11] X Research source
-
Take into account your car’s overall color. Paint color is one of the most popular bases for nicknames given to cars. Allow your car’s color to inspire the nicknames that you brainstorm or choose—think of the associations that you have with that color, including animals, flowers, gemstones, characters, and color words. A bright blue car, for example, could be named Papa Smurf or Blue Velvet. A red car, on the other hand, could be named Scarlet or Ruby. [12] X Research source
-
Decide whether or not your car has a gender. Some people like to assign a gender to their cars—car names have traditionally been female, but that doesn’t mean yours has to be! Also, you don’t have to give your car a gender—but it may help you to narrow down your brainstormed list of cool car nicknames . Don’t put too much thought into your decision—go with your gut instinct on which gender you think your car best emulates. [13] X Research source
-
Be as creative as you want and match the name to your personality. Naming a car isn’t as serious as naming a child or a pet—so have fun with it! You can choose random words or phrases, pick from mythological creatures or gods, or even name your car something totally unexpected. For instance, maybe you have a monster truck named Baby or a refurbished sedan named Vanderbilt. Whatever you choose, make sure the name reflects your sense of humor and the overall attitude of your car. [14] X Research source
- Think about your favorite things, like movies, books, or hobbies, and consider whether you could pull any cool names from any of these items.
