AMC Gremlin -- a gremlin a sort of demon, but is also an old aviator's term for a troublesome mechanical foulup -- who'd name a car after that?
Fun fact: for reasons entirely innocent, I once had a meet with Anton LaVey, founder of the latter day Church of Satan. And he arrived in -- you guessed it -- a Gremlin.
When I was down in Costa Rica, I saw a monster Hyundai SUV that they don't market in the states, called The Galloper. I though that name pretty much sucked.
