We've never named our vans.  The kids get annoyed when I get their names mixed up.  If I started called them the caravan's name then goodness knows what trouble I'd be in.

Now you're just being silly, everyone knows that it's only the white unicorns that need grooming.

Gertie the Geist. Her real name's Brunnhilde, but that's a little too Teutonic, so it's Gertie for short.

Our Sterling Europa is called "Zeus". For those not up on their Greek mythology, Zeus took the form of a White bull & abducted princess Europa, whisking her off to Crete before revealing his human form. 

Last weekend was our first outing with Zeus, & what a change from folding campers, great weekend.

Good choice :)
Did you enjoy your first trip , you can't beat a caravan! It's a lot easier.
