Hey Nostr, need some help naming our travel van!

I’m bad at naming things and my wife is even worse, so I’m hoping to crowdsource. Can’t take another road trip this summer without a proper name..

Little backstory on it: bought it during COVID in Ojo Sarco, NM so I’m keeping that part of the previous owner’s business decal since it’s part of its history.

I spent the first summer gutting it, fixing rust, cutting new windows, insulating like crazy (better than my house lol), installing solar and wiring the van for dc&ac, and mounting a back seat I bought in Colorado for the kiddos.

Put in 2 bunk beds with the kids on top so it can slide forward so we have headroom beneath, garage with 2 long slides under the bed that houses the kitchen setup, food and extra supplies.

Behind the drivers seat we have the bathroom cabinet and an upper cabinet for storage.

Freezer between the two front seats so we don’t have to buy meat on the road.

All of the wood besides the thin marine ply was reused from other projects. Definitely did it on a budget so it’s not perfect.

We’ve already had some epic trips in it with our kids and have another coming up in a few weeks, but still need a good name.

Will pay 1k sats if we choose your name. All ideas welcome. Will include some photos..

Oh and some pics of the interior that’s kinda a mess rn.

Guess I should also mention that we’ve only paid for a proper camp site all of once in Yosemite valley, so we’re sort of dirtbags (if that helps in the naming lol)

That is sweet. renovated an Argosy airstream as covid project. My name recommendation which should go with what you inherited from the previous owner is the name of the song my cute Dominican neighbor plays on repeat:

How about BTDT? Meaning Been There Done That. Somewhat like R2-D2 from Star Wars, just no numbers.

I'm not great at naming things either, that's just what randomly came to mind. It's a great looking van! Y'all are going to have some great memories with it!
