Hi, we are very new and are due to collect our first motorhome in the next few weeks. Just a fun thought, do people name their motorhomes or am I just nuts to name everything :-)

Welcome 😁

We don't, although we had a 'beast' a while back, suppose that was sort of a name.

Many people on here do name their motorhomes. Many on here are also nuts, but that’s just coincidental. 😜

Yes, I have always named my campers. I'm on Rocinante number 6.
The first such was a horse owned by one Don Quixote used for tilting at windmills.
The second by John Steinebeck in his account, 'Travels with Charlie in Search of America'.
The rest were mine. (I've seen the name spelt: Rozinante)
Good luck with your new steed named or not.

I had Albert the Talbot but then changed to a Pilote so now I have Paddy the Pilote. It’s sad really as neither of us go to the van to do something No we go to Paddy to do something, everyone around us knows what we’re talking about.
Maybe I should update my username!
