When we bought our first vanagon, an '80, the PO informed us that it's name
was Flanagon Vanagon.  We had to name our second one ourselves, so I came up
with Vincent Van-G0.  Thought it was pretty original at the time, but that
was before I discovered this list.  I've probably seen about half a dozen
cases of the same name mentioned since.
  When we got our present '91 since it is the same color as Vincent had been
we decided he must a cousin, so his name is Vinnie.
   Recently I bought a Westy that I hauled north from San Antonio on a
trailer.  The Digiwife says that since it's yellow and from Texas the name
must be Rose.

so it goes...
