#NameYourCarDay: On cars that bear a name
There are more oddly dedicated days than there are days in the year. Today in the USA, it’s time to celebrate “National Name Your Car Day.” In pole position in the US ranking of favorite car (nick)names is “Baby.” According to a current survey, one fifth of drivers in Germany have given their cars a name. And in the history of Mercedes-Benz there are models, entire model series even, that also bear a name alongside the star. That’s reason enough to dedicate my post to this phenomenon.
