Linus27 Posted October 15, 2015 Posted October 15, 2015 If I had a Zed, it would be called Gal or Gisele. Kraziekatz1 will get that My white DC5 is called The White Whale. My Subaru Impreza is called either Scooby, Scooby Doo or Scooby Poo and my blue Mk1 MX5 is called either The Smurf, Papa Smurf or Rose. Quote

Bloody sisters What is it with you Compton lot. Sarah, Erica, Phoebe and Helena wanted to paint my car with black patches so it looks like a killer whale. Penfold would work though. I've already been called that by an old band I was in. They even did a picture for me x Edited October 16, 2015 by Linus27 Quote

Richesio Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 (edited) Liam. In the US they call 'Nissan' as 'Neeson' So I thought it was like the actor Liam Neeson. Hence Liam! I'll get my coat. Edit. My parents had a red Ford Focus and they called it Robert. As in the actor Robert Redford. Edited October 16, 2015 by Richesio 1 Quote
Ekona Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 Nissan is actually pronounced Neesahn, it's just dumb Brits that say it wrong. Yes, I say Nissan too. To my eternal shame. Quote
Rock_Steady Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 Yeah, but then you're falling into the trap of hyper-foreignism. I wouldn't say i'm going to Deutchland for the weekend just because that's how the Germans say it 1 Quote
Ekona Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 (edited) But it's a brand name, so doesn't need translation. It's just laziness. I'm still going to carry on using Nissan though, even if it is wrong Edited October 16, 2015 by Ekona Quote
Rock_Steady Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 That's not a translation by any means. We don't say Germanland. Quote
Rock_Steady Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 It's not wrong, it's just a potato potarto situation Quote
Kraziekatz1 Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 I'm scared to give my zed a name in case it starts talking back to me 1 Quote
Linus27 Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 I'm scared to give my zed a name in case it starts talking back to me I can't see that happening. Everyone try's to avoid you at work so I am sure your blue blob would be no different Quote
Kraziekatz1 Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 That is very brave of you coming on the 350/370z forum and referring to them as 'blobs' If anyone would like Linus27's address, please PM me 2 Quote
Stutopia Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 But it's a brand name, so doesn't need translation. It's just laziness. I'm still going to carry on using Nissan though, even if it is wrong I bet you secretly say adeeeeeedas too 1 Quote

dajw Posted October 16, 2015 Posted October 16, 2015 I usually name my cars after what's on the plate already: RO62 EGE = Reggie. Makes sense in my head anyway. I had a Cayman S called "The Gnu" because that was its plate. My RX-8 was "Rex" and the 350z was always just called "The Zed". I never named my MX-5. Quote
