Silvia is a “real” name here in Portugal :)

Every car with “a” for the last letter

Like … Multipla??

I’d rather name my kid Martin than Aston tho

I used to know a girl named Miata, would call her “Mazda” instead :P

You wouldn’t want to name him lada or Land Rover or lotus for obvious reasons..

I think I’ll name my kid MP4-12C

Come on, that’s ridiculous. 650s would be a much better name.

Gee. Thanks. First time I got mentioned so I’m a bit giddy

what about eleanor

Yes that sounds great! Beautiful name for girl!

At the other hand, it’s even a real name…
It’s only well known by the car guys, because the Shelby GT500 ‘67 was called like that! ;)

I’d say Godzilla, but seriously: The only possible names on this list are Silvia, Enzo and Giulia. The others are just miserable. You wouldn’t name your kid Mx-5, so why Koenigsegg? There are few Automotive-related names that would make sense for a human. For that, my example would be Miura.
