Name my ride!

Some of you may know that I am collecting my first Commer Highwayman from Scotland on Saturday. I am in a bit of a dilema though! Every commer seems to have a name given to them and I feel I should name mine before collecting it. That way I can use a name whilst cursing it if it should fail to proceed! Now the options are 'DICK' after Dick Turpin the highwayman. I like the idea of telling people I'm going to get my 'Dick' out at the weekend. Or 'BESS' the Highwaymans ride. After Black Bess. Or EMMA because the number plate is EMS. The plate is EMS 301L and could be OIL or BOIL related. Any further ideas welcome.
 
How about 'Duck' Duck-EMS-301L?

What about 'Olive' as in olive oil from popeye

or 'nessie' being from scotland

i think it should be your decision though

Good luck on saturday by the way

Thanks for all the replies and suggestions. We have:
Dick - As in Dick Turpin the Highwayman
Bess - As in The Highwaymans Horse.
Emma - Because the plate is EMS
Duck - As in Duck-Ems 301L - Duckhams Oil
Nessie - Because its from Scotland
Donald - As in duck 01L
Claude - As in Claude Duval the Highwayman
Susan - as in Susan Boyle - EM S.301L
All great suggestions but my favourite has to be from Enigma Tthank you) with
OLIVE - As in Olive Oil or Olive 01L
So from now on EMS 301L will be known by me as OLIVE and she will stay with my other car LILY as in Tiger Lily the Sunbeam Tiger.


ITS JUST COMMERN SENSE TO HAVE ONE

Peggy's got an MOT !!! (not a lie)
 
Olive is still for sale and in better health than ever! Last week she sailed through her MOT and was treated to a years road tax (well it was free). I have reduced the price a bit to £3395 to encourage things along but if any one on the forum wants her I will do a special Commer Van Fan price of £3200 (no less).
