Cali names

[motacyclist]

Our 2yo grand daughter has christened our Cali "Pinky Ponk", or Ponk for short.

I'm sure you all watch CBeebies and will know where this comes from, I just hope I don't keep bumping into trees with it ...

So we've got Albert, Ariadne, Zebedee, Syd I can recall off the top of my head, what's your's called and why? (Or have we already had this thread?)

Mostly thanks to our now 11 year old Daughter

Cali: Sharkey.... Due to the tribal shark tattoo on it's side
Multivan: Mutley... Due to a misspelling of Multi
Westy: Foxy... Because she thought it looked like a big Glacier Mint


Oh dear...

I think 'Colin the Cali' has a nice ring to it!

 

[normg]

Ours is just called 'The Cali'

 

[Hotel California]

No more , no less....

 

[normg]

Like it.

Clara the Cali. Another children s TV reference, this time Long distance Clara from Pigeon Street.

I was going to call it 'Mama Cass' after California Dreaming' but got usurped by a higher authority who said 'Paddy'.
I'm none the wiser as to why but now it's definitely Paddy.

Oh, you're actually a Cali van that's sending in all those cracking posts? Who is your owner?

Please no!

 

[LindaF]

Ours is Poppy as she's red

I think you're all crazy naming a bit of tin.
But I do have to laugh at the inventiveness of some of the names

 

[Bramco]

It's a van but it's our van, so it's the van.

 

[robo]

I tend to call ours the van. The other half calls it Lady Hamilton.

 

[bmassaer]

Kelly, due to lack of inspiration... Or just "the bus"!

 

[arranvet]

Mine will be called the"overdraft"

 

[Bellesca]

Havent finally decided yet. The numberplate suggests Zorro, but it is a big blue starry box (night blue) that's bigger on the inside and is going to transport us to never seen before lands.....so maybe the Tardis
Nb. Lower case the as there is only one "The Tardis"

Elma......
