My car needs a name and I'm in debate over the cars sex .. I think male while my partner thinks female ... Help

Boats have names. Cars don't!

 

[geoffus]

What colour is it ?

 

[Spikey]

Definitely male. Cactus. Think cactus plant. Mine will definitely be male

 

[MaroonBells]

Maybe its a hermaphrodite

 

[Spikey]

Nah it's male but it could be a female at a push. I think mine will end up with a male French name. And I do think (nice) cars should be named. They are so much more than a boat

As a former 2cv owner everyone I knew had a name. Usually feminine. Some cars do have souls.

We have got a Cactus and a C1 (both bought at the same time - we are official Citroen fanboys/girls)

Cactus Is 'Rowett' and the c1 is 'Stan'.

I like how the C1 gets a boring sounding basic name "Stan" and the Cactus has a more exotic "Rowett"

Ours is called, " Ami " after the Citroen Ami 8 we had years ago.

Judging by the reaction of friends and family we think Marmite is appropriate. However, it hasn't arrived yet so that might change
I've been told that the car will be leaving the factory this week.

Yeah I had that but more from another forum I am a member of (photography) my family mostly liked it

the car is black on black.... from the front I think it looks quite aggressive ( male) but all other angles not .. But yes I think all cars have a soul/character .. Its part of the family now and I probably spend more time with it than anyone..

I cant call it Stan.. my cycle is called Stan .. ( When I Bought it I told my partner is was a Boardman which she thought meant Stan Boardman ) ..

 

[benfox]

Definitely say it's male.

 

[Mrsstuzilla]

Agreed. Even down the five o'clock stubble on the door panels. :lol:

Male Cacti have roof bars, female Cacti don't

 

[shedender]

ok .. the consensus is male so its dave or jack....... thank you all ....

It just seems to suit perfectly. I love our Stan by the way - it's like a big bug or beetle to look at but Rowett is a class act - and that name suits too.

We are very, very, sad.

It's a dave now ( spikey)
