About Volkswagen names

Volkswagen owners name their cars more readily than most, and the cars make it easy. The Beetle picked up a nickname in nearly every country it was sold in: Käfer in Germany, Vocho in Mexico, Fusca in Brazil, Coccinelle (ladybug) in France. The Type 2 bus is the Bulli at home, the Kombi in Brazil and Australia, and a Westy when it carries a Westfalia camper interior. Naming your own car carries on a habit that is as old as the cars.

The 1,000 names here follow the shapes owners actually use. Beetles get bug and insect names (Love Bug, Jitterbug, Scarab) or round, small ones (Bubble, Pebble, Dot). Buses get road-trip and flower-power names. The Golf, which was sold as the Rabbit in North America, gets fairway terms and rabbit names, and the GTI gets its plaid seats. Jetta, Passat, Polo, Tiguan, Touareg, Scirocco and Karmann Ghia get puns on the badge: Jetta Stream, Passat Midnight, Ghia Whiz.

The rest is flavor: V-Dub names, friendly German given names like Fritz and Trudi, real German words with the English meaning in parentheses, color pairings such as Mint Bug, and jokes about air-cooled engines and diesel clatter that other owners will recognize at a meet.

How to choose Volkswagen names

  • Start with the model. A Beetle suits bug names and round names, a bus suits travel and peace names, a Golf suits fairway or rabbit names, and a Jetta or Passat is best served by a pun on the badge.
  • Use the color. Mint Bug, Red Rabbit, Mustard Bus and Tomato GTI are easy to remember, and they still work when someone only sees the car from across a parking lot.
  • If you pick a German word, say it out loud first and keep the meaning handy. Schatz (treasure), Flitzer (little speedster) and Glückskäfer (lucky beetle) are short enough for a key tag or a rear window sticker.
  • Match the name to the car's habits. A slow air-cooled bus has earned Uphill Both Ways or Slow Lane Legend, a TDI with a noisy idle is a Clickety Clack, and a tidy GTI is a Pocket Rocket.
  • Try the name for a week before you order a decal or a plate frame. The one you still use at the gas pump is the keeper.

Frequently asked questions

What are good names for a VW Beetle?

Bug and insect names are the classic choice: Love Bug, Ladybug, June Bug, Jitterbug, Scarab and Cricket are all in the list. Round and small names such as Bubble, Pebble, Button and Gumdrop suit the shape, and a color pairing like Mint Bug or Pistachio Bug ties the name to your paint.

What should I name a VW bus or camper?

Bus owners lean on travel, music and peace: Magic Bus, Wild Wild Westy, Samba Sunrise, Flower Power and Peace Train. Nicknames from the scene work too, such as Splitty for a split-windshield bus, Bulli (the German pet name for the bus) or Loaf of Bread for the boxy shape.

What do the German words in the list mean?

The German entries are ordinary German words, phrases and given names, and most of the words carry their English meaning in parentheses, for example Liebling (darling), Spritztour (joyride) and Wanderlust (the urge to roam). Copy the spelling carefully, including any umlaut, before you put one on a decal.

Do these names work for newer Volkswagens?

Yes. There are puns for the Tiguan, Atlas, Taos, Arteon and Touareg (Tiguan Tigger, Road Atlas, Full Taos), fairway and hot-hatch names for the Golf and GTI, and Buzz and ID. names for the electric models. This is a fan list for naming your own car and has no connection to the carmaker.
