HOW TO NAME YOUR RED CAR
Consider the color
As one of the more intense colors, red tends to invoke a lot of emotion. It can also symbolize everything from love and passion to strength and courage to rage and anger.
Plus, with plenty of variations or shades of the color red, you might get some inspiration from your unique shade.
Consider the shade
Since every color also has thousands of shades, it’s important to keep this in mind as you choose the right name. Each shade symbolizes certain emotions, traits, and other associations.
- Light red: joy, passion, and love
- Pink-red: romance, friendship, femininity
- Dark red: energy, rage, leadership, courage
- Red-brown: masculinity, associated with harvest and fall
Consider the make and model
Have some fun with a play on words or alliteration. “Tomato the Tacoma” or “Candy the Corvette” are good examples of where to start when considering what you should name your red car.
Consider the type of vehicle
If your enormous red truck gets a name like “Strawberry Jam,” you might get some chuckles. Since that’s probably not your intent, consider the type of vehicle before you choose the name.

Whether you’re frustrated with her inability to start the morning you’re already running late for a meeting or you lovingly refer to him as the one thing you can always count on, car owners everywhere love to name their vehicles. - Give yourself some fun
Maybe it’s a bit of irreverence; maybe it’s a touch of sarcasm. Either way, it’s simply fun to name your red vehicle. Let the whole family join in and vote on a name or take the wheel and name him or her yourself.
