Does anybody else name their car? What's your car's name?

Title says it all. Every car of mine that I've gotten mechanically deeply involved with has had its own unique name, to the point that its almost spiritual. Every named vehicle ive named didn't have something arbitrary that I just threw at it, it was a name that came to me out of nowhere, clear as day while working on said car, as if out of nowhere I was struck by lightning and said "that's it, that's your name". It's gotten to where I tell people that the car itself has to TELL you its name. Its almost like youre communing with the machine spirit of the vehicle. For the record, my current project hot rod, a 1992 T top camaro in the midst of a 383 stroker cruiser build told me that its name was the Solar Angel. My 1979 350 camaro was the Perfect Stranger
