Like any good captain of any good vessel, RV must be named!!!

So what did you name yours - and more importantly - WHY?

I refer to my RV as "the RV". I refer to the Jeep toad as "the toad". I refer to my pickup as "the truck". I refer to my house as "the house". I only have one of each. It doesn't really matter. None of them come when I call them, anyway. And I quit naming inanimate objects around the age of 7.
Retired and visiting as much of this beautiful country as I can.

I was very lucky since mine already had it's name on the front cap. It's name is Rockwood (but it won't come when called so it's kind of worthless) ๐Ÿ™‚

Never named my trailer or my vehicles. I just call them Trailer, Suburban, or the daily commuter is the white car because it's white.

DW named our TT "The Hilton" cause it's so much nicer, and bigger than our last one. I named my truck Babe (The blue ox).

We downsized from "Shamu," a 32-foot Bullet, to "Bob," our 24-foot Arctic Fox, named for Robert Guiscard, 11th century Norman conqueror of southern Italy and Sicily, known at "Robert the Fox."

DH named our 5er "Wife's Palatial Palace" because we bought the one I wanted which was one size bigger than he wanted. He named our dually truck "Fluffy Bunny" because it is white, has big rear end and is chased by a Fox.

We seem to name everything - check the signature .....

We also have our old van "Salty Dog" that has been demoted to a surf fishing vehicle, a VW "Betty" the beetle, and an 19' Chaparrel named "Chappy" ....

DW goes by "Curly" to many, lots of people call me "Moose", but I answer to almost anything .......

After downsizing from a 31 foot 5th wheel with two slides to an 18 foot TT with one slide we named it "The Little One"

We keep ours simple the truck is named Truck, the fifth wheel is named Camper and wife's Expedition is named Car. All you have to say to the dogs is Camper, Truck or Car and they go to the correct vehicle and door. They have been through three RV's knowing it as Camper. Works for us.

Our first RV was a TT, which we dubbed "The Rolling Ritz" after the Ritz Carlton hotel.

Our second was a 1988 Hawkins Motor Coach. We named her "Sadie" after Sadie Hawkins in Al Capp's "Lil Abner" cartoon strip.

Our current RV is a TC, which we call "Topper," because it sits on top of our red Ford F350 (dubbed Red Ryder) and also because we love old movies, among them the Topper series including "Topper Takes a Trip." That's the name of our travel blog.

Regarding names, I used to own sailboats. When I bought a 40' Passport sailboat I spent a lot of time thinking about names for the boat and the dinghy. People often connect the names of the boat and the dinghy. One guy in my circle of boating friends named his boat "Good Vibrations." His dinghy was "Jiggles." Someone suggested I name my boat "Senility" and call the dinghy "What Dinghy?" I passed on that idea.
