The Funniest Car Names Of All Time
All cars need names, some of them are legendary, some of them not so much. It’s one of the most difficult parts of the car manufacturing process, and today we’re looking at ones that somehow made the cut despite their hilarious title.
Daihatsu Naked
Starting off strong, I know. What do you even call the owners of these kei cars? Naked owners? The Naked community? I just know that someone out there has tried being naked at least once in their Naked.
Isuzu Mysterious Utility Wizard
I haven’t seen this one in Harry Porter. Not sure what’s so mysterious about it, but rumours say that you can see the car flying on a broomstick at night when everyone’s asleep. Jokes aside, it’s a pretty cool name for a normal-looking SUV.
Mazda LaPuta
Don’t be fooled by the cute exterior, it's wonderful to own but if you say it’s name to a Spanish person, they may give you a weird look. That’s because LaPuta translates to, how do we put it kindly, “a person of the night” or “female dog”. Not the best name if you want to boast about your newly acquired kei car.
Studebaker Dictator
This car was built around the 1930’s to 50’s, which if you couldn’t already tell, the name was racking up a pretty bad reputation from somewhere in Europe, so they changed the name to Commander later on. Good save, Studebaker.
Mazda Titan Dump
I’m a mature man, “poopy-stinky” jokes shall not affect me (I am currently crying from laughter). The original platform was named Mazda Titan, and this is its Dump truck variant. This is why commas are important in any language.
Great Wall Wingle
See above, but this time it’s from China and another type of bodily excretion. At least both names make the act of doing your business seem more gargantuan than it seems.
Nissan Friend-Me
The concept car itself looked pretty good, but that name? It’s like sending a heartfelt message to someone and only getting “👍” in return. Don’t worry Nissan, I’ll be your friend.
Mitsubishi Pajero
Most Malaysians are familiar with this name, but most don’t know that in Spanish, Pajero means “someone who enjoys their alone time”. If you know, you know.
Ford Probe
Do NOT google what ‘Probe’ means in Urban Dictionary, save your eyes and keep your children away, I’ve warned you!
Saab 9-5
I can’t tell if they’re mocking my working hours or if they’re sympathetic about it, though in this economy it’d be more relatable if it was 9-7 instead.
Honda That’s
Honda forgot to finish their sentence here, I wonder what they were trying to say. No, seriously Honda, That’s what? That’s.
“That’s” all folks! These were some of the funniest car names I’ve picked out for your amusement and I hope you’ve had a good laugh with me. Since naming things has always been difficult, what would you name your first car if you had a brand? Comment your’s below, the funnier the better.
