Do you have a name you call your GPS?

[Donna M]

I was just reading about someone who called their GPS Shirley, and it made me wonder what other names are out there. Also, do you prefer one accent over another?

We call ours Garmie who is American. My son likes his British lass, which drives me crazy!

We named ours Nigel. He has a British accent. We originally had the female voice but whenever she says Recalculating, she says it with a bit of a sigh as if she's tired of telling us. The 1st time we used it extensively was on a trip to Sedona and with all the downtown construction & detours it was constantly were recalculating. She had to go. We love Nigel.

Bertha
She's a real witch

We call ours Garmi as well. She has a bossy British accent which makes it difficult for my husband to disregard her directions when he thinks he knows better!

 

[GSUJillybean]

I call her the AutoNag.

Seriously, it's like having my husband in the car ALL THE TIME.

 

[I Love Pluto]

Umm..We call ours "the Garmin".

I wasn't aware that they came with names. I guess it's kind of like the Cabbage Patch dolls?!?!

We call ours Hannah.....we drive a Montana. Sometimes the voice is a woman, or a british man, or an elf(for Christmas) or some kind of evil voice (for Halloween)

Phyllis. Pp was right....she sounds really disgusted with us whenever she sighs and says "recalculating".

 

[Girlfriday17]

The one in our Jetta is called Lulu and the one in our Golf is Bebe. The bluetooth in the Golf is Greta. Yes we are VW people.

The older Magellan is Maggie.

[smitch425]

does "stupid lady" count as a name???

 

[stauncie]

Madge......

Its a Magellan

 

[BkrsLoveDis!]

We call ours "Lola"

We loved the movie "RV" so much that we named ours Lola also!

 

[goofy4tink]

My old Magellen is Maybelle.....I now use the gps in my phone. Call it stupidhead. Every single time we drive back to Sanford, from WDW, it gives us the most interesting pronounciation of Titusville!!! Hence, the stupidhead.

The ones in the Hertz rental cars are called "Linda". A co-worker named it, and it just stuck. The one in the Avis rental cars are called "Roz", since it seems to have a rough voice like the Monsters, Inc. character.

 

[aubriee]

We call ours "Lola"

I have a friend who calls hers Lola.
