RE: What's your Trailer's Name?
My 1964 Overlander Land Yacht International goes by Mary-Jo in honor of her first owners, Mary and John. They introduced me to camping when I was five and the Overlander was brand new. Mary thought so much of the Overlander that she refused to trade it in when they purchased a new Airstream in the early 1970s, and they kept the Overlander until they retired from travel in 1980.
It has been much more difficult to name my 1978 Argosy Minuet 6.0 Metre. Friends have suggested Teacher's Pet as her original owner (1978-2002) was a teacher as was I. For much of the time that she has resided with me, I have called her Miss Mini 78.

Buster.
It was my wife's Grandfather's nickname. He was a proud Airstream owner and the inspiration for us to get one so we found it fitting to name our trailer after him.

The Love Shack III ('01 Bambi 19). LS1 was a Cameo 19ft dual axle TT, LS2 was a '95 Coachmen mini MH on an F-250 chassis, LSIII is an Airstream, so it is probably the final iteration...

^X2. Although, I call it a number of things when I'm angry at it.

SuperTrouper
Not after the movie, that's "Trooper", not the Abba album, (although it was named similarly).
I thought about a name for the trailer for quite a while and as I posted in an earlier thread, I consider my family my troupe, a trouper is one who perseveres and one of my most satisfying jobs in past theatrical work was operating a Carbon Arc Super Trouper Spotlight which required skill and finesse. I ordered the Super Trouper logos from the Ballantine Strong company, painted them and riveted them to the Ocean Breeze to make a unique model. Seemed fitting as a forum handle as well.

"Izzy" in honor of the woman we bought her from, (we registered her with AS with this name)...but the woman we bought her from called her "Betty"

Raggedy Ann.
This is based on her condition when we bought her. She was in terrible shape. Two years later and a full retrofit, and we should probably name her some thing else, but the original name has stuck

Botany Bay. Especially appropriate since we got it just before Covid and the lockdowns.

Olaf
While trying to come up with names the movie Frozen was on. Olaf seemed like a good fit, and that meant Sven would have to be the name of our tow vehicle.
