Most of these I've had for years...it's only the oldies that I've picked up recently!

I named hubby's car- Skeeter. It's a Mini Cooper S. It's zips around like a waterbug on the top of the lake.
We had a 89 Reliant for many many years- we called it the Reliable Reliant. It made it thru 6 kids learning to drive. Didn't quite make it for the 7th.
I have a 57 Metropolitan named Baby- because she's little.
My firebird doesn't have a name yet. Any ideas?
Sewing machines don't have names. I'd need quite a few.

I have 6 machines, but only named my latest.
It is a Model 66-2 Red-Head Singer Treadle. I named it after my MIL "Smitty". My FIL always called her Smitty as her maiden name was Smith.
I was very close to them and my husband told me when he was little she used to sit and sew on a treadle just like mine. She had 6 kids. I bet it got lots of use!
My MIL and FIL and treadle are long gone, but still loved and remembered and cared for! :) :) :)
I have to get busy naming the rest or else they will fill unloved and not work properly

Car ~ Silver bullet
El Camino ~ Tiny Truck
Ford Pickup ~ Big Truck
Ford Ranger PU ~ Grumpy
1969 Pontiac Tempest ~ Kentucky Blue or just Blue
I haven't named any of my machines and don't have a long arm. We haven't named the fish in the pond, either.
