Does your TJ have a name?

[Squatch]

Simple, albeit perhaps silly subject. I've noticed that a number of people have referred to their TJ by name. So, the question is, do you have a name for your TJ, and if so, what is it? I'll admit that I sometimes name a rig, and other ones will never be referred to by anything other than what they are. My son-in-law goes by CJ, and I always call him Ceej. So, as of late, I've found my self referring to my TJ as "The Teej", or simply Teej. Some may find the entire subject idiotic, but I know I've read quite a few posts where folks have mentioned their rigs by name. So how 'bout it? What ya got?

I bought Rusty Cage last Memorial Day not long after Chris Cornell of Soundgarden died. Naturally there was a Soundgarden renaissance happening on the radio then. Rusty Cage was on the radio when I test drove it. And well, the color.

Funny, as that song is what I associated the name with. I found it a humorous name for a TJ, for sure. Great choice! :thumbsup:

I refer to Jeeps in general as 'beasts' cuz when you look at them head on, they look like some 4 legged creature ready to rip ur head off..
I refer to my tj as,

'The White Beast'.

Don't have a name for my Jeep. My wife names hers but I've never named vehicles. I enjoy others' names and reason behind them.

I like to call mine " You Big POS " as I'm turning wrenches on her.

I’ve never named any of my vehicles, but my wife does. She named our Jeep “Bumblebee” because it’s yellow, black and has “stingers”.

Eleanor. Always told myself if I was going to part with my CJ it would be for a Rubihara. The day after I sold my CJ #380 shows up about 2 hrs ride from me. When I first got her she had so many problems the PO didn’t resolve. Took me weeks to just get her to pass emissions so I could get registered. Anyhow, I first thought Christine. But Christine broke things and fixed them herself. Then I thought about the Stang Eleanor (Gone in 60 seconds) and how she treated her owners. Seemed to fit. This particular Jeep has problem had more stupid issues than the other 7 or 8 together, but still my favorite.

Mine is named Blue Moon. Not for the beer.
It is once in a blue moon when we get to go on vacation in it.

For those that don't know, a blue moon is two full moons in the same month which happens every 3 to 7 years.

Just got my 97 TJ on Thursday. I wanted to name her Red Sonja, after Conan the Barbarian’s sidekick, but because she’s a petite 4 cylinder, I decided on Poppy (like the red flower.)

My daughters name all our cars. My Jeeps are:

red Unlimited - Reddy
black Cherokee - Darth Vader

I think 97 is the last year before they changed the suspension?

I have no idea. I’m sure I’m going to learn a LOT about her over the next few years! Especially, how expensive she’s going to be.

How original

It has its own presence. There's no need for a name.

 

[C.J. Roberts]

My Jeeps have all been called "Muddog".

 

[Bogman]

The LJ is a beach buggy and surf fishing rig so “ Bent Rods”seemed fitting.
