Chloe - you MUST give you new car a name. My little Corsa is called CHRISTINE, because she does have a mind of her own, and has been known to try to mow down the odd unsuspecting pedestrian! Go on, give her a name - how about Barbara? that's a nice one Jacqui |

Hi Chloe, Congrats on your new car! we have had several names for our cars,Bess was the first then there was biddy and tess and we havent decided on a name for our new one yet.Needless to say they are all female names but the affection usually changes when something goes wrong and they are called the same thing then which i cant really mention here but has five letters,starts with B and ends with H! Good luck with it and Happy Motoring!! |

Peugeot - French - something sexy then! Claudine, or Francoise (depending on the sex) as its Silver (colour) could call it Tonto - as in Hey Ho Silver, Away PW - an abbreviation might be good (youngsters like abbreviations) Passion Waggon. MF - My first (car) AM - All mine (well, perhaps the bank's also?) Any more suggestions? Jacqui |

Sorry Chloe - we seem to have taken over your thread and I really do feel pleased for you. I remember what it's like when you get your first car, so exciting. It sounds like a real bargain too. Enjoy HER, I know you will. Chrissie |

Thanks everyone! Christine..... scary car!! As for the suggestions I like the idea of something French sounding. I know a Claudine so not that name. Any more French names? Anyone have French ancestors? (My surname is supposed to be French but not found out where and when yet). I have the surname DuSolei/Du Soleil in my tree.... how about Soleil, or is it too girly? Chloe PS It's a silver car - HATE red cars!! LOL |

Soleil is lovely. Doesn't it mean sun. What's wrong with being girly. Chrissie |

Argh!! So many names. Thanks everyone. I like Belle. As for my christian name, it's not actually French! It sounds it but it's actually Greek (some demi god). Go figure! Belle is really cute too.... reminds me of the Disney film Beauty and the Beast, one of my favourites (big Disney fan). Chloe |
