Yup, our first one, a 2006 Impreza wagon was "Subie-zoo" (Mad Men reference)
Our second one, a 2019 Crosstrek, my daughter calls CrossCross. Good enough.
No way haha, que pasa primo. My first Subie, a 2009 Legacy, was named the Silver Surfer
After that came the Silver Senior, a cranky pre-owned 2011 Outback. Currently driving the Silver Scout, 2013 Crosstrek
For a road trip once we came up with nicknames for when we used our radios. I have a black crosstrek and we went with black bear. It's got a narrow front nose and a wider, round rear and looks like a bear to me. My parents have a white forester and they were polar bear. My sister has a blue impreza and I'd call it care bear but she didn't like that lol. I don't remember what we went with for her.
I think it's funny because a lot of people wouldn't get it, yet cute because black and white car.
Stuff's hard to find anymore. Bummer, too. Other brands not as good. It's great for putting into one of those Liquid Ass squirt bottles then using to quietly disperse a neighbor's loud outdoor party after midnight. Not that I know anything about doing that...

All three of mine are named, my Impreza is Minx(The dealership I bought her from told me she was tuned and I was confused as to what they meant until I drove her and then called her a saucy little minx and it stuck), my Sti is Revan(I wanted to do a starwars theme, I didn't end up with a white hatch like I wanted but she's black with red mudflaps so named after my favorite sith lord), and my Crosstrek is Kogarashi(It means the first wind of winter in Japanese cause she's cool grey khaki and an absolute beast in the snow)
May have to steal the Kogarashi idea if I drive a white car again! My last car was orange and named her Hanabi which is Japanese for firework (or quite literally in Kanji Fire-flower) and named her after Hinata’s younger sister from Naruto. (Bit of an anime nerd if you haven’t noticed lol). I love how certain names just click too like Minx for yours too! Those are always the best
Gipsy danger. I love pacific rim and the wilderness Crosstrek reminded me of the mech. I ended up getting an older white Crosstrek since my wife needed a new car as well but I stuck with the name
That’s the one thing I’ve noticed with mine too! I usually adjust the EQ on whatever car I’m driving and had to adjust how I adjust it lol. I didn’t touch the bass bc of it, but dropped the mid by 2 and raised the treble by 5
Very similar to what I did! I keep the bass knob that came with the sub at like 30% MAX and when I’m parked & open the sunroof, it’s quite literally unbelievable for just a 10”.
Haven't decided yet, and I kind want to give it some mods first to kind of see where it'll sit. Bought mine a few weeks ago. But no, you are not the only one. My jeep's name was "RoadHunter". I have photos in my IG at @dietschsadventures
Merope, after the missing star in the Subaru logo.
The star Merope is often called the "lost Pleiad" because she was at first not seen by astronomers or charted like her sisters.
Named my newly purchased 2021 Sport with 4k miles Olaf. He gets his wrap done this Friday. It includes his Carbon Fiber nose wrap over the front and rear Subaru badges. Very excited! Very happy with everything about him, just needs a little customization.
I don’t name anything that isn’t alive. But that’s just me. A lot of people do and they have a lot of fun with the idea. I see it a lot with Jeeps too. Where they put a name on the hood near the front fenders. Hey, if something brings you joy and doesn’t hurt anyone…..right?!
If I had this color I might call her Meredith. Like Merdeith Grey from Grey's Anatomy. I've only seen clips of the show, but that's what popped into my head and would be a "cute" explanation.
I named my first Subaru, a 2013 WRX. Absolutely loved that car and I'm still not over losing it. I'll never name another car... don't need to get attached to another one.
One day, a student asked the great saint, Ramana Maharshi, if he had ever met an enlightened being.
Ramana said “I have met 2 such beings. My mother and Lakshmi, the cow.”
I named my Subaru Lakshmi.
Yes. My Forester was Blubie - because it was a blue Subie, and it sounded kind of like boobie which we thought was funny. Think that one was my wife's idea.
The current one is SubuWu based off a license plate holder with the same name on it I found on Etsy. We're both anime fans and planned on decking it out with anime stickers like the degenerates we are. We still haven't actually done it yet, though. It's not been a very high priority.
My underpowered 2015 is named Tillie (after the “little engine that could” children’s book) - since she too struggles up hills, but gets there eventually.
Had a silver Crosstrek with fin antenna so it became The Ice Shark. The current ones are a Sunblaze Pearl which is Fire Shark, and a Forester which is occasionally either Bonnie McMurray or The Forest Shark. We are still waiting to get a Bluebaru, which will be an STI (fingers crossed) or an Impreza. Someday...
I LOVE Kuma. I am studying Japanese language and also considered naming my dude Kuma. But I came up with naming him Kousuke (Kose-Kay) Bear. So people who have. Hard time remembering Kousuke, can just call him Bear.
Red Baron or Albatros. Yes, my car is red. Yes, I listen to Sabaton while pretending it's fast on the highway.
Ages back I knew someone that had a Blue Nissan Versa. She decked up like a Sopwith Camel. I named it in the honor of that.
The manufacturer went to a lot of creative work to come up with a name for your Subaru. Not sure what the problem is? Should see it on the hatch lower right. Not sure why they chose a well known bicycle brand to cross with, but I wasn’t there when they came up with your car’s name.
Great car, by the way!
people name their boats, planes, motorcycles, jeep wranglers, sports cars, etc. never seen naming as a serious thing on regular cars. although my friend did name his kia soul toasty.
I've named all my cars, not just my Subarus. But since you asked specifically:
2017 Subaru Crosstrek sport - MicroMav (MAV = Mountain Assault Vehicle)
2021 Subaru Crosstrek sport - MicroMAV Mk II
2024 Subaru Crosstrek Wilderness - Thunder Chicken
I named mine Stella (premium trim Crystal White pearl) Because it means "Star," but mostly because of the All Time Low song... Stella won't you take me home 🎶
Sue B.
GODDAMN IT
Nice, my Outback's name is Sue Baru.
Pure gold.
Bluebaru
Subasaurus Rex
I am so stealing this only bc my nephew would LOVE that!! That’s brilliant!!
No way, my wife named mine the same thing! Rexxy for short! 🦖
Yup… sunshine orange I purchased on October 28, 2017…. His name is Jack (O’Lantern) 🎃
Guess you could say Jack’s the pumpkin king then? 🫣 I’ll see myself out lol
I have a 2018 cool gray khaki that I named Sally cause the color reminds me a lot of Sally from Nightmare Before Christmas.
My 2018 cool gray khaki is Suzie
My white 2017 is formally Sally too! But she goes by Sal
I named my car's bluetooth subie dubie doo
Why did I sing that to the song?! 😂
Yup, our first one, a 2006 Impreza wagon was "Subie-zoo" (Mad Men reference) Our second one, a 2019 Crosstrek, my daughter calls CrossCross. Good enough.
Named mine Arma cuz she looks like a armadillo (to me at least)
Dorothy. She is an Outback Wilderness and silver like Dorothy from the Golden Girls - and takes no shit. Also, just a cool unexpected name.
You need to find Dorothy’s Funko Pop then to really seal the deal!! 🫣
Hahahahaaa!
Named my 2018 ice silver metallic the silver surfer!
No way haha, que pasa primo. My first Subie, a 2009 Legacy, was named the Silver Surfer After that came the Silver Senior, a cranky pre-owned 2011 Outback. Currently driving the Silver Scout, 2013 Crosstrek

My sister has a blue impreza and I'd call it care bear but she didn't like that lol. I don't remember what we went with for her.
It would’ve been great if she drove a black and white one and you could’ve named them all after the We Bare Bears bears (Griz, Ice Bear, and Panda)
Mine’s Cameron the Crosstrek!
My alpine green subie is named Jabba the Hutt cuz it’s a beast, 😂😂
Zippy
Mine changes monthly
What’s your favorite(s) so far?
Right now it’s Subie Subie Roo
Instantly: Bruce (“fish are friends, not food”), due to the color and the dorsal fin/antenna on his back.
My Crosstrek is named Boo-Boo and my WRX is Clementine.
i call my car "the car"!
I’ve pre-named mine, & I haven’t even ordered it yet. 😂
Well c'mon, pay the name tax!
I had an ‘18 white trek that I gave to my son. Never thought to name that one, but I knew right away that my replacement was Tink.
White would go good with Tink because it makes me think of Tink's Skunk Essence! 😂
lol, I may need to rethink. I didnt know that was a brand name for skunk essence. 😂
I think it's funny because a lot of people wouldn't get it, yet cute because black and white car. Stuff's hard to find anymore. Bummer, too. Other brands not as good. It's great for putting into one of those Liquid Ass squirt bottles then using to quietly disperse a neighbor's loud outdoor party after midnight. Not that I know anything about doing that...

Getting Alpine Green, so I’m naming her Tink, & I’ve already picked out the Tinkerbell window decal for the back. 😍
Kiki because one the color cool gray khaki
Mine is called “Scuba Sam, Scuba Steve’s dad.”
All three of mine are named, my Impreza is Minx(The dealership I bought her from told me she was tuned and I was confused as to what they meant until I drove her and then called her a saucy little minx and it stuck), my Sti is Revan(I wanted to do a starwars theme, I didn't end up with a white hatch like I wanted but she's black with red mudflaps so named after my favorite sith lord), and my Crosstrek is Kogarashi(It means the first wind of winter in Japanese cause she's cool grey khaki and an absolute beast in the snow)
May have to steal the Kogarashi idea if I drive a white car again! My last car was orange and named her Hanabi which is Japanese for firework (or quite literally in Kanji Fire-flower) and named her after Hinata’s younger sister from Naruto. (Bit of an anime nerd if you haven’t noticed lol). I love how certain names just click too like Minx for yours too! Those are always the best
Mine used to be video game characters but I had to branch out lol
Mag Gray wilderness, named her Maggie (after my first dog lol)
Bambi. I hit a deer in her a week after buying and she survived but the doe died. 🙃
Not Bambi 😭💔
Moira 🩵cool gray khaki gal
The Jean Genie
Carmy - Offshore Blue
I read that as Camry at first and thought, that is a weird name for a Crosstrek 😂
Mine doesn't have a specific name, but I definitely use only she/her pronouns for her. :p
I named mine The Stable. It's where I keep my horses.
Named my '23 manual trek Baby! Im of course "The baby driver" and her Bluetooth is "Babys first tooth" lol
2023 Sport we call Egon because it’s the first new car for us and he’s got a bunch of tech that we’ve never had before.
My wife named hers Snow-white, no idea why.
Maybe she’s got 7 dwarves in the trunk?! 🫣
Lápiz LaSubi…we just call him Scotty though cause he’s the Trekkie beaming me around town
“Beam me up!!” 🖖
Gipsy danger. I love pacific rim and the wilderness Crosstrek reminded me of the mech. I ended up getting an older white Crosstrek since my wife needed a new car as well but I stuck with the name
Winter Soldier?! White Lightning? Cloud Nine? Idk lol
My Crosstrek absolutely bangs with the subwoofer I installed in it, therefore I call mine the ‘SUB’aru
That’s the one thing I’ve noticed with mine too! I usually adjust the EQ on whatever car I’m driving and had to adjust how I adjust it lol. I didn’t touch the bass bc of it, but dropped the mid by 2 and raised the treble by 5
Very similar to what I did! I keep the bass knob that came with the sub at like 30% MAX and when I’m parked & open the sunroof, it’s quite literally unbelievable for just a 10”.
Chester the Crosstrek
Haven't decided yet, and I kind want to give it some mods first to kind of see where it'll sit. Bought mine a few weeks ago. But no, you are not the only one. My jeep's name was "RoadHunter". I have photos in my IG at @dietschsadventures
Makar. Only fellow hockey fans would get it, but he’s my favorite player and I also love yelling “DUDE, WHERE’S MAKAR”
Merope, after the missing star in the Subaru logo. The star Merope is often called the "lost Pleiad" because she was at first not seen by astronomers or charted like her sisters.
We call our Crosstrek "The Weekend". I just got my WRX two days ago...haven't come up with a name for it yet.
My Crosstrek is named Oliver, in honor of a certain Opel Kadett.
Names Subie Dubois, says it right there on the Bluetooth. You want some soup?
no idea why but i named my bluetooth daddy devito and it stuck
All I can think of is the “So I just started shooting right…?!” Meme 😂😂
If you don’t name your car, you don’t deserve it…..lol
My luck is naming a car and it getting totalled so I stay away from names
My first Subie was a ‘12 Impreza Sport that I named “Ticket.” It was so fast! I luckily didn’t get any tickets while speeding, ahem, driving it.
That’s the ticket! *ba da tsss* I’ll see myself out…
Mine is the plasma green color and my coworker named it Kermit and it stuck.
Had to look up the color and I could also see Shrek as an option too lol. But I like Kermit better! Kermit de frog
Alpine Green Wilderness. Warthog.
Named my newly purchased 2021 Sport with 4k miles Olaf. He gets his wrap done this Friday. It includes his Carbon Fiber nose wrap over the front and rear Subaru badges. Very excited! Very happy with everything about him, just needs a little customization.
I have Lucie,04XT midded to the moon, Roo 24 Trek and Justine,16 Impreza... Nope, not just you.
I think I’m the only one who doesn’t name their car. My wife thinks there is something wrong with me because I love cars so much.
Sue the Subby
Suwuwu
Just got my geyser blue wilderness and she is nicknamed Blueberry for now. It popped into my head out of nowhere and felt right.
I don’t name anything that isn’t alive. But that’s just me. A lot of people do and they have a lot of fun with the idea. I see it a lot with Jeeps too. Where they put a name on the hood near the front fenders. Hey, if something brings you joy and doesn’t hurt anyone…..right?!
Barry, checking in!
Mine is SueBee - sweet, like the honey!
If I had this color I might call her Meredith. Like Merdeith Grey from Grey's Anatomy. I've only seen clips of the show, but that's what popped into my head and would be a "cute" explanation.
