I thought that all cars were female. Where did you come up with that name?

It’s a combination of things. The letters on my license plate are AFR. So I figured I’d pick a name with those letters. I thought of doing some type of rank in the name, and “Admiral” fit. The color of my car is called “Indigo Ink Pearl.” Indigo is a purplish dye, and the Phoenicians were know for purple dye. Since my car is male, I figured I’d make a name that derived from “Phoenician” like the name “Finiccio”. Then I just shortened it to Finn. As for Rollington, cars roll. I didn’t go real deep on that.

All the cars in my friend’s household are named according to their colors. For instance, the gold van is ‘Mr. Gold’ while the blue van is ‘Mr. Blue’.
So, being that we’re around them all the time, my kids have just automatically titled our cars as such. We have Mr. White and Mr. Maroon.
Why they are Mr’s I don’t know.
I just hope no one finds a candlestick in the ballroom with blood on it and our van ends up in the impound.

The name seems a little long… good thing you are going to shorten it to Finn when you chat about him behind his bumper.
