I've noticed that most of the names being mentioned are male, and so 
on behalf of my friend Karen, who is a feminist in all things, I've 
come up with a (very) short list of names in case the car in question 
is a girlie car.  Make it known, however, that my first "it's all 
mine!" car was named George - and this was about 5 years before I'd 
ever heard of Harry Potter.  Our current car is Sophie, but we always 
forget to call her that.  

You could call your new car Rosmerta - the color seems to be one that 
I can picture Madame Rosmerta wearing... Very attractive and 
distinctive.

You could also call her Rita - but then, that would be more suited to 
a new Beetle, don't you think? ;)

If you tend to drive on the speedy side, you could always name her 
after one of our favorite Gryffindor chasers - Angelina, Katie, or 
Alicia...

Or call it Minerva, which has a regal ring to it, and hang a piece of 
tartan plaid from the rearview mirror. ;)

Just some thoughts.  Personally, I like Rosmerta, best.  

Jen (who now wants to buy an acid green VW beetle and name it Rita)
