    Two names for the same car. Either the always descriptive "The Mav" or its real name "Old Joe". Joe was the name of a dear family friend and the original owner of my Maverick who passed away several years ago.

    The blue one is Emma after the previous/ original owners name. The aqua one was named Lulu since everyone thought I was lulu for buying a Maverick without a motor but now it's affectionately known as Hyde.

    I know someone that names their cars after the people they bought them from. If I went by that, the two in the picture below would be Lee and June (in that order). Otherwise they're called "The 73" or "The Grabber".
