That is an excellent name and I'm surprised nobody has thought of that for a model or brand, if they indeed haven't. Fits a Trek to a 'T'.
My vehicles get names I feel will fit their particular 'character', after going though many names in my head usually. Don't like normal normally. My '87 Chevy Celebrity was known as Miriya, just liked the spelling for Mariah (they call the wind and some foxy singer that). My Schwinn Heavy-Duti was Charlemagne, Tempest came from how fast she is and my old 1966 Pontiac Tempest. My 1968 Chevelle sedan was Charlene as in the country song John Deere Green and my 1986 Pontiac 6000 sedan was Bettina (Gregory, an ABC reporter) Gayle (cute gal I know) and that was all to nickname her "Bette".
You never dreamed I'd write a book but I've done this for years.
