I am getting married in 6 weeks and i want to name the tables for the reception in Mini names.
So for example:
Ritz
Elf
Hornet
Moke etc etc.

Basically what im asking is can somebody give me the best 7 mini names. Then i will read everyones ideas and put them against my own to create the names.

Thanks

I'd go for the, um, up market London places to make the guests feel good:

- Piccadilly
- Mayfair
- Chelsea

And for the hangers on?

- Hackney
- Brixton
- etc... :thumbsup:

Go for early names that weren't necessarily just mini models.

Mini Minor
Elf,
Hornet,
Seven,
Clubman,
Countryman,
Cooper,

And you can always put all the hotties on the "mini95" table as an in joke.

You could also do names of Mini associated parts stores/online sites...Minispares, Minispeed, Huddersfield, Minisport, Sommerford....etc.

*Edit: Or...what about Mini shows/gatherings?
