Funny you should ask, as tonight while working on the Marauder I realized I hadn't named it yet. I always name the cars I build, but generally not this long into the process.

Only their given names. Sometimes I refer to one as "The Acura" or "The Honda." Sometimes I call them "The TL" or "The Fit." So no, no names.

My black Maxima: Blackie Chan. It's black and from Asia
My TL: Type-Slow. All show and no go.
My sister's tan Sentra: Old Man Tan. Old man's color
Mom's old silver mercury tracer: The Silver Bullet. Self-explanatory name. That machine is just built for speed. :-P

No name for the teggy, but if I had to give it a name I'd call it "Squeeky" because the polyurethane bushings squeek so damn much.
No name for the Avant either, but I wouldn't mind calling it "Audibot". Already got the plate for it.

09 Acura MDX....'The Ac'. I dont think my son has a name for his Alti 3.5SE and I doubt my daughter would give a name to her 'new' 97 Prelude. I used to call our 2000 Quest, Big Mama prior to it being totaled.
We used to call our 07 AV6, The Honda (mainly because its three stablemates were all Nissans); the Murano we called The Mo and our old 02 Maxima was called The Max. (pattern?
) Not very original but.

S2000 is "the little guy" because it's small and it identifies to the wife which car I'm driving that day.
The V is the Silver Dragon for obvious reasons. (scroll to 2:25)

The closest I come to names is just so we know which car we're talking about...."red Miata" or "white Miata", "black Lexus" or "silver Lexus", but when there's only one to choose from, it's just "the van" or "the Acura".
Sometimes I refer to the Prizm as "Prizmatron" and the Festiva as "Wonder Nugget" and the Fiero as "the Fireball" - do those count as names??

Someday, an RS6 Avant+
Neuronbob: 
Sometimes I say "The Subie", or "My Legacy", but no formal name. I'll slip in a "My Honey" when the mood is right. (is this a car or pick up a woman thing?)

There's a guy on the LS1tech forums with all of his Camaros in his signature (they're all 4th gens too) and one's called the Blue Beast (his drag strip car), another's called Garage Queen, one is like "the daily" etc. He has a name for all 5-6 of his Camaros
