All ours have been named Fred.

We are now on Fred 6.

They were named because, on paying the deposit for our first one, we reckoned its carpets would be "fredbare" by the time we finished paying for it.

They have all had their name and number fixed on the bonnet in chrome letters.

What about:

Hamble ... this was one of the dolls on Playschool I think
(H)Imelda ...
Jemima
Melinda
Helga

Had a car called Jemima, our spiders are called, depending on size, Sam, sam's dad sam's grandad etc. I am not keen on spiders but somehow giving them a name has helped.

Was a newbie, now a Middie.
Ours is called SLOOPY, because before we had the air suspension fitted, it went around corners with the same wobble as this nice girl in the video.......(y)

Oh crikey! I'm cringing at the thought of telling you all this one.
Ours is Vinny, short for Vincent. Otherwise it's "The Van".
He gets his full title as I release the handbrake and we say
"Vincent van.... go!"

Yep, not the correct pronunciation of the esteemed artist's name, but hey-ho!

Fred in our household = a spider!

Spiders here are always Harry.



Way back then I just thought Harry was going to be released!:groan:
