The Christening of Kevin’s Car

Kevin is insulted that I’ve named his car Belinda.
"It’s a boy car," he says.
"Well, then, you give it a boy name," I replied.
"It’s a Honda, so I suppose I should give it a Japanese name, like Aki Hachigoro."
"Whatever floats your boat, dear."

This morning he apparently changed his mind and indicated that he would let me name it "Bertha" after all.
"Belinda," I corrected him. "Get it right."

We can’t risk offending our trusty ol’ car.
