Next week I am taking her in to have names put on both sides of the hood. I've already paid for it.
Then my brother pipes up "Thats cheesy". >:(
Granted I am putting my gaming name on her that is also a magic card. (maybe thats what he thinks is cheesy) :o

Since you asked and I have zero inner editor I'll offer my two cents.
Sounds gayer then aids.
That being said, its your Jeep and you should probably ignore me, I'm made up of %50 cheap beer and %50 refined grade A arsehole.

I wouldn't even ask the yahoos on this site... lol....
It's your jeep... do what you want. I see no problem making your rig different from others...
Binare - you made me laugh....

We've been promoted to being yahoos? Since when? Does that mean we get a raise?

Yup. Kevin's Jeep and trailer are different from all the others, and we see no problem at all with his quick-detach wheels and spruce bumpstops.

Do what you like, it's yours.
No more gay then roll me over, family stick man, go topless, my other vehicle is a jeep, hummer recovery vehicle and every other stupid sticker people put on there crap.
but if it identifies part of your personality or hobbies and who YOU are then Hell yeah put it on.
then put on a Rebel or I don't give a S#!& decal beside it...

9 out of 10 voices in my head says I should share this. My jeep,s nickname is fred. No yahoos here.

All these years I've thought Fred was your alter ego!
-
You are a gamer.
You want to stencil your gamer name on your jeep.
Your bro is being kind...much too kind

Sure, we all have names for our jeeps but who actually PUTS the name ON the jeep???

Within my circle of wheelin buddies, every rig each of us have built over the years has managed to earn itself a nickname. Once it has earned a name, sometimes it is broadcast to the world with a sticker along the top of the windshield.
That being said, often we do not come up with the nickname of our rigs ourselves, it is more likely to be chosen by someone else within the group based upon experiences building the damn thing, or experiences on the trail.
Some examples are:
Dodgey -- A full-size '80's Dodge built with Chevy drivetrain (sitting on 44's)
Shakes -- Another full-size 80's Dodge diesel that had a tenacious childhood (sitting on 40's)
Fire Chief -- An '98 XJ, red in colour (didn't see that one coming, did ya?), that was previously a fire marshal's work vehicle, had all sorts of holes drilled in the interior/exterior for their CB and radio equipment etc.
Swamp Donkey -- '88 Toyota 4Runner, custom built to the point of non-recognition, renowned for being ugly but damn can it ever crawl through anything you throw at it
Lost Limey -- '98 green XJ, owned by a limey bastard, who actually 'lost' the damn thing on the trail. Got left behind by the group on a night run after getting stuck, had to abandon it on the trail, find his own way back to camp, and when the search party started, couldn't find it until 4pm the next day.
These are just a few examples, but like I say these are rig names that have been earned appropriately, and chosen by others. Works really well if you ask me :)

I cant believe I wasted time reading that dribble. Gay
Do what you want. Make the jeep yours. Even though that last list was full of commie zipperhead dribble.
:D
-
Perhaps one should ask what your Jeeps name is?
I call mine Angie. In my eyes shes built like a brick crap-house, has nice headlights, curvy bushwacker fenders, and shes absolutely flat in the rear as its an XJ...
To each their own. right? :)
It makes it unique to put a name on it. Putting a decal on the side differentiates you from the rest of the herd.
And speaking of stickers, if you want better mileage you need at least 2 Garrett Turbocharger decals....

my 58 fc170 parts cab came previously named as the moose hearse ( it was painted on the doors in yellow paint) Ive since then doubled the cab and shortened the name to moose

What he said...
-
In true internet fashion, 9 out of 10 replies have nothing to do with the OPs comments. He's asking about putting magic card mumbo jumbo on his Jeep, not about naming it. Mines called either POS or the Tractor depending on its or my mood at the time. Jeeps attract the ladies, unless you have your world of Warcraft orcs stats tattooed to the hood, be honest with the guy.
-
I can't decide whether to put "TREMCLAD" or "RUSTOLIUM" on my hood decal :P

Yes but I would venture a guess that most people wouldn't assume to associate the name on a vehicle to a magic card...you would need to know the names of magic cards in the first place, which then you might have some appreciation for it.
-
WTF is a magic card. Wait... I don't want to know...
-

I have an appreciation for this being the very first response I read answering the OP's question ;D lol
Do whatever you like it is part of the fun of owning a vehicle you customize, for whatever reason you choose to customize is your choice. If your gamer tag is bad arse and you want that on your hood go for it. What is the name you are putting on the jeep?
-
This is my decal:...

-
OP isn't naming his rig, he is adding *his own* name/handle.
I'm assuming he is just throwing on a small decal, not painting it across the the side of his jeep. Worst case he decides he doesn't like it and peels it off later.
Do whatever makes you happy dude. Loads of people have stickers and misc aesthetic mods; personally, I like seeing vehicles that are slightly different and owned by an enthusiast.

I'm gonna name my Jeep and put a big sign on the hood too.
It's called "For Sale"

I tried that, not really an attention getter.....
-
But "POS" is not the same as "For Sale", Dwight.

Dust? Don't you mean rust? Or perhaps both.
