I need a name for her!

I have a little work to do on my 1973 Airstream. I need a name for her. She is eggshell white and robin's egg blue inside. She is my mobile boutique. I mostly sell soap. My style is flowers and plants, herbs, organic, slightly rustic, cow skulls and ravens, clean and natural.



My truck is called Iron Maiden (she's a 1976 Ford F100 flatbed.) I am an herbalist and a soapmaker (an apothecarist)

Suggestions please!? Thank you! love.

We need pictures of inside and out to understand her personality. However the first name that came to my mind was Robin (the way you called out the robin's egg blue) or Blue Bird.

From Phantom and Kitten (Phantom is my Porsche Macan and Kitten is my 16' Bambi) may all your travels be filled with smiles, laughter and a bit of mischief :-)

I agree with the name will come to me thing, it's just usually names come to be like lightening! I've been working on her for a year and nothing has come to mind...

I think I'm getting impatient.

Thank you everyone for the suggestions! love, me.

A name for her

Electra, Lavender Jane or Peaches - all 1970's girl bands (Google them). Any one of these would go perfectly with your truck

One of the most popular girl's names for babies born in 1973 was Heather, which also seems to align with your other interests.

This. You need to name your own trailer.

I still have yet to name my truck, waiting for it to come to me as well

I am starting to call my 73 globe trotter "Whammy", cuz that's what she put/did to me.
(More repairs, and therefore work, than I could possibly imagined " Cursy" was another possibility

I named my 1976 Airstream Beatrice or Aunt Bea after the company that owned Airstream at the time.

Check with Airstream as they have a name registrary of all the assigned names. Hence mine is registered as "Space A ". See left. They will send you a medallion to affix to you trailer with the name on it. Bob wheeler sent a citation designating the same.

How about "Carrie" as a play on "apothecary"?

I like Lizzy, as in a tin Lizzy. Lizzy is a great vintage/old world name.

Tin Lizzy and Iron Maiden pair nicely together plus has a great ring to it.
