Pet Names for the Model S

[ferrarimanf355]

After today's shocking event in Sugar Land, TX, I think Rowan may not be a wise idea...

I think he may be referring to Rowan Atkinson, the British comedian behind Blackadder and Mr. Bean.

He also owns a McLaren F1 and owns the fastest Top Gear Star in a Reasonably Priced Car time in the Kia. Faster than Tom Cruise.

<3 Rowan Atkinson, but it is actually the son of somebody I know who is named Rowen/Rowan... I'm not sure of the spelling.

I'm not entirely comfortable with naming the car 'Nikki' but for now it works until a better name comes along. It may be one of those things where I'll name the car after I get to know it better.

Tho I don't know how good a name OMGBESTCAREVER is going to be... :wink:

I think I am going with "My Precious"

"What has it gots in it's pocketsess..." oh wait, that won't work. ;^]

If I got the performance version, I would call it "The Beast"

But I'm getting the regular version.

I'm getting the performance version, and calling her Joules, after the unit of electrical energy I typically deal in. It also happens to be my license plate.

FYI there are a few Roadsters out there named Nikki.

They have different last names, however - so we probably won't get them confused.

Well, for those who have two, I guess they could be Nick and Nora.

If I got the performance version, I would call it "The Beast".

Beast makes me think of something loud and probably smelly, like an ICE

I like the Joules spatters mentioned, that's quite clever. If I were to name it I'd want something associated with quiet/silence/stealth or with energy.

For some reason N* made me think of NUMMI, which made me think "child of NUMMI", which led to the question...

Has Tesla renamed the factory yet?

They call it Tesla Factory now.

So we can say 'look at that S-Car go?'

Until my wife names her Model S, the Roadster is Tessie and the Model S is Essie.

Same here!

I put this on the noise maker thread. But after a snarky comment towards my dad this weekend "S.B.D" is the front runner for the name of my Model S. It is for "silent but deadly". I made a comment about running him down in his parking garage, after he revved his engine at me as I was walking to meet him.

@ElSupreme sounds like you picked your vanity license plate! ;-)
