Acura TSX = Roberta
Acura MDX = Phillis
Porche 997 = Mariah (she has hips )

I did not name any of them. Friends at work named the 911, Daughter named the other 2. Don't ask me about Phillis I don't know why!

S/o decided to name the 997 Wilbert, but I like Erin. Thus, her name is Erin-Wilbert.

AMG C63s is named Khadi (pronounced Katie)

I typically do name my vehicles. My 997 is named Porsha, which seems fitting

M3 is Rose (red interior)
Mini Cooper S is Carmen

I don't usually name my cars but the rest of my family does. I broke down and named this car though. May I introduce Shakira, because the hips don't lie.

My 997 S is called Hammer as it is fitted with a Moshammer kit.

Default Car names
Not all of my cars have names, but this one does - Wizard. I am not sure why it is right but it is.

I was thinking of naming my car "Porsche", or maybe "Porsche 997"

We name them all. "Greta" or her full name, "Greta the Targa" is the 997. I need to update the sig, but the G-body 911 has been named "Archer."
Wife's VW wagon is "Jasper." Daughter's Mini is "Zeke."
I'm not a boomer. YMMV.
