A plane with no name.

[cnoe]

I've had my bird for nearly 3 years now, and yet she remains nameless.

I do care deeply for her, and pamper her like the mistress that she is. Yet I still don't know what to call her.

Names always seemed to come easy with my boats, though their monikers were sometimes harsh. My Mooney deserves better.

Am I rushing things? Should I just relax and let it come naturally?

Thank you in advance for any kind words and understanding.

Relax, I had mine for more than 10 years, I pamper her, miss her when she is sick (maintenance), I make time whenever possible to see her, I try to think what she may like... and despite all that: she is just "Our Mooney".

You are just good...

Since I am a proud plaintiff's lawyer, my bird has been dubbed the "Wings of Justice".

+2 "The Mistress"

My wife just calls her, "The other woman".  I'm having the same anxiety right now over this plane, and I've only had it 2.5 months.  I'm leaning toward Kate - M20Kate.

I do naming professionally. All I need is a photo. I'll have 25 names on your desk by 9am. I'll waive the fee as well

Definitely a woman. And I have the invoices to prove it.

I had an experimental Katlin in my younger days. No matter how I rigged it, she couldn't stay straight.

Never know what you're getting with an experimental.

Rocket = Dolly.  Larger displacement equipment hung on the front in place of the factory jugs.

That better be your wife or daughters name

[Gone]

My wife named ours "Baby."  NOT MY IDEA!!!!

But I will absolutely defend and respect her decision.

Ya'll are ahead of me.  I still haven't figured out if mine is male or female.  (Although understandable, I reject the name Caitlyn for the obvious reasons!)

Doesn't that by definition make her "the mistress?"

I gave her a bath today. Scrubbed her undersides thoroughly. Got a good start on her rub-down (wax). Considering it was 95 F. today I may have to call her "the Punisher" instead of "the Mistress". I'm BEAT!

Caitlyn is therefore the perfect name! Bruce can't decide if he wants to be make or female . . . Last I heard, he was talking about going back to male . . .

I've had my Mooney nine years and a month, and haven't really thought about naming her. All of my cars up until my current Ranger had names. Hey! My Mooney is also a Ranger . . .

[BruceLee]

I've wanted a Mooney so bad for so long and then I came here and saw the love you guys have for your "Birds"

I just can't wait until I can share in the pride and joy of ownership that is so obvious and prevalent here.

Kids are grown and gone, house in contract for sale, downsizing in the works, I'm getting closer.

After 15 hrs of flying and a couple thousand miles over the last week I won't tell you what my other half calls ours now (I will say my other half does not like flying at all). After flying six hours back home from vacation and us having to dodge clouds and running into some rain my other half was calling mine some names I never even thought of.. lol

Ours is named Dee Dee.  It's a reference to the previous paint scheme from the 1970s. She has new paint but carries the name name.  

[Browncbr1]

Since I'm married to my F, I call other late model 201s sexy mistress or temptress because they nearly make me cheat on my F who treats me right and takes care of me.

My first Mooney was Baby, now on my M20K I am torn between Big Baby, Big Brother, or Sam (Steve an Alison's Mooney).
