Morris Minor Owners Club

Hey I haven't even found my little morris minor yet but I'm so excited about getting one I have started to think what he or she might be called and would love to know what people have already come up with

Hi Vicky - welcome to the forum! There was a thread a few years ago about the names people have given their Minors. Here's a link: http://www.mmoc.org.uk/viewtopic.php?f= ... 3&p=184317

.mine came already christened by previous lady my moggy was called Gertie

Mine is '1000' - most are. Just a few are '1,000,000'.......

Mazie because a Brit friend of mine said that it was a proper British name for a girl.

yep and mine was a 1000 called by alex morris minor

Yup , mine is Molly Weir,after the wee Scottish actress of the same name,she was hardy,and long lived,always with a smile and a hard worker, from a poor background who made good in this tough world,just like our minors

The name changes depending on what the car is up to at the time.

Mine is named "Doris" the morris

I've had a few, and had to name them all
1 - Yasmin (reg YAS 610)
2 - Sophie (reg SFO 892)
3 - Phoenix (christened by previous owner)
4 - Maggie (reg MAG 780G)
5 - Charlie (after the particularly generous previous owner).

Thought I would just jump in here even though my "new" car is a 1956 Oxford.

After much thought we decided to call her Myrtle because it is a bit old fashioned and it begins with M. Ten minutes after telling a friend about this he sent the following:

There once was an Oxford named Myrtle
Whose name came from rhyming with turtle
For her shape is the same
And her speed rather lame
Dear Myrtle's too old now to hurtle

Oh dear, I see that two Minors still grace my signature line. I must fix that as both have now found new homes.

Mine is called Roger .... For no particular reason other than my first car was always going to be Roger

We have a Charlie [frame][/frame]

We recently bought a minor called Monty,
Condition, very nice but not quite Diamante,
We tore around the lanes of Worcestershire County,
Sometimes at sixty sometimes close to ninety,
And it certainly scared the sh*t out of my great auntie!

Close to ninety?
I don't think so
In a moggy?
Faulty speedo!

Depends on what now resides under the bonnet............

Dreams and poetic licence !

YAS 810 is alive and well and living in Essex.

Anymore'YAS' out there?
