When we were dating, my husband's Austin Healy (old and decrepit) was named Car. Then we had two full size Dodge vans. The first was Charlevan, the second had no name till we moved to NJ, registered it, and they gave us the license plate BOB (followed by some numbers). No more nameable cars till 2005, when R bought what I thought was the meanest looking car we ever had, a black Dodge Magnum 8 cylinder Hemi. It was variously called Hearse, Mobmobile and Mafia Car by our friends, but we came to call it Snarky. Still have it.
