Naming your Scooter

mandyscoots · Post by **mandyscoots** » Tue Apr 29, 2008 5:22 am

I posted a poll about ideas for what I should name my buddy.
Although I truely like Rosa; which was my first choice, my sister and I have been calling her "Pepto"

No endorsments

I think I have settled on The Weeeeeeasel, Buuuuuuddy

Every time I hear Buddy I think of Pauly Shore.

I'm kind of upset I didn't think of that first.

Sounds like you're ready for an adventue now.

I want a WYLD STALLIONS scooter club jean jacket. That would be most excellent.

Well,

The wife came up with the name, but I'll admit I really like it.

I have an Orange Buddy 125. Therefore the name is:

OB1

Yes, I know it's spelled wrong, but it's still cool....

Queen · Post by **Queen** » Fri May 09, 2008 3:30 pm

I'm thinking Genevieve (said with full French accent), I'll have to ask her what she thinks of it.

heavypetting · Post by **heavypetting** » Fri May 09, 2008 4:59 pm

I've been kicking around some name ideas for my Sunset...

Pokey
Cheetoh
Conceitta
Peaches
Punky (pumpkin)

Any thoughts? My scooter is not gender specific

KRUSTYburger · Post by **KRUSTYburger** » Fri May 09, 2008 5:03 pm

I like Cheetoh.

Post by **ericalm** » Fri May 09, 2008 5:04 pm

I kind of like Cheetoh!

Apiarist · Post by **Apiarist** » Fri May 09, 2008 5:57 pm

defintely Cheetoh. the world's only perfect food

Scooterpup · Post by **Scooterpup** » Fri May 09, 2008 6:51 pm

I'd go with Cheetoh too!

For anyone with a yellow scoot - it could be called Funyun!

Queen · Post by **Queen** » Fri May 09, 2008 6:58 pm

Cheetoh is excellent!

Apiarist · Post by **Apiarist** » Fri May 09, 2008 7:43 pm

if yellow is funyun, i guess i should rename my red pamplona to 'nacho cheese dorito' then if it gets ripped off i can run after it yelling 'that's nacho cheese! that's nacho cheese!'

I'm going to name my Italia, Ovid after the Roman poet. I'm kind of a latin nerd

PammySue · Post by **PammySue** » Sun May 11, 2008 3:26 am

I had a sunset buddy that I was determined to name Pepe - now I have the St. Tropez and Pepe seems even more appropriate than ever!

But now, I can't get this one out of my mind - Bugs.

(Bugs Buddy) get it?

ay pablo · Post by **ay pablo** » Mon May 12, 2008 4:11 am

When my 75 year old aunt saw my Buddy she thought it must be German so she called it "Super Fahrt" (her translation: #1 Ride!!).....When I told her it was made in Asia, she said "then you have to name it 'SoHung'!".

So I must oblige....I guess my Scooters name is "SoHung".

Well then, do you mind if I name mine Super Fahrt if you're not gonna use it?

Any further details would be inappropriate but it seems you get my point.

Chasey sure loves to flash her underside.

If anyone, like me, wonders, "Who's Chasey Lane? Some musician I've never heard of?" and Googles the name, well...

NSFW!

too funny. up to now i assumed she was a singer from the disney population conglomerate

Holy cow, you can really get some great suggestions for scooter names from her Filmography list at IMDb

I haven't read to many of your previous posts, so if my reply is off, well, you probably expect that from me anyways.

I'm naming mine "X-1," after Pee-Wee's bike. (Even though mine is blue, not red!)

SScooterG · Post by **SScooterG** » Mon May 12, 2008 10:56 pm

I'm thinking of naming mine Julep - like a mint julep.

I think my elderly aunt would be very happy.

heavypetting · Post by **heavypetting** » Mon May 26, 2008 2:33 am

I have selected "Pokey" as my scooter's name. It sealed the deal when my husband got his Fly painted Envy Green (like the Scion xB).

Now we can be Gumby & Pokey (although he doesn't approve of the Gumby name, but I plan to wear him down)

vegasbuddy · Post by **vegasbuddy** » Mon May 26, 2008 2:38 am

I'm going with "Napolean" for my St. Tropez!

AAaawww... I like that. Now you just need a giant black mohawk

addictionriot · Post by **addictionriot** » Mon May 26, 2008 4:42 am

I named my buddy before I got it like any good parents naming their child.

His name is Benny and the reason behind that is:

My boyfriend's best friend is named Ben. He hates being called Benny Boy.. So I call him Benny Boy

In attempts to reconcile our new found friendship and basically stop the evil looks I decided to call my buddy, Benny. Hopefully I can contain myself and keep the name calling to a minimum.

Othergods · Post by **Othergods** » Tue May 27, 2008 12:42 am

Well I am a huge H.P. Lovecraft fan so I have no other choice. I had to name my scooter Scoothulu as an homage to the great Chtulhu. Just wish I thought of this before registering to the website, I would have taken that name instead of othergods lol I may have to reregister hehe

cthoops · Post by **cthoops** » Tue May 27, 2008 12:50 am

I've had her for a year, but Mr. cthoops came up with her name a few weeks ago - Olive. Not particularly original, but it definitely fits. Plus, after we changed the oil I was able to say "Olive has new oil!". Olive oil - get it? Yes, I'm easily entertained!

In terms of naming my Pamplona, I'm thinking either Bunny or Maude. The reasons will be apparent to some more than to others...

I'd go with Bunny.

Then when someone asks to ride her, you can say "for a thousand dollars... but your friend can't watch, or he has to pay a hundred."

Blackie · Post by **Blackie** » Tue May 27, 2008 12:02 pm

My new Buddy125 will be named Blackie; named after Eric Clapton's favorite stratocaster.

Not at all; your post really tied the thread together.

I named my black buddy Puddles (the University of Oregon Ducks Mascot)

My mother has a brand new Red Buddy she calls Dorthy (wizard of Oz)

Man! you're full of 'em! Seriously, when I changed my oil, it spilt all over the "scooterport" we JUST poured the slab like a week before! Dang!

When Jimmy said our first local ride was gonna be on Saturday, I almost said "Saturday? I DON'T F*ING ROLL ON SHABBOS!!!" ...But then I reallized I'm not even Jewish and he probably wouldn't understand. Okay, I'll stop... for now.

Aw man, a sequin Buddy would be hardcore. Or at least big red metallic flakes paint job! mmm...

That's ok KRUSTY- you're just a young woman... in the parlance of our times.

This aggression will not stand.
