What's in a name? What did you name your Macan EV in MyPorsche App?

[SylverFoxxx]

Hi everyone. New to the forum (and not-so-new to the Macan EV as I have mine since early October, a couple of weeks after the official world launch).

In lieu of presentation, let me ask: what do you call your Macan EV?
(ie. the name that then figures on the MyPorsche App)

Mine is Kaiserin Kiara. I keep it as Kaiserin for short on the car/app, but she looks just like a Kiara, so that's her full name.

PS: this is just a fun question; don't mistake me for taking these things too seriously

Technically it’s Thunderbunny 3, since there were two others before it.

Night Fury

I was hoping a thread like this would get started! I love dragons, and the "How to Train Your Dragon" series. My Chevy Volt was named Toothless (the main dragon) so I continued the trend and called my Macan EV Night Fury (the type of species that Toothless was).

Aquila Alba

Thanks for the challenge @SylverFoxx! Looks like you can’t change the name once it’s active in Porsche Connect Services unless you get help. (See correction below)

I’ve picked “Aquila Alba” because it has special significance. It is better than “White Eagle” which is the non technical name for the same eagle. It has both spiritual significance and also connects to an artwork by the same name.

There is no connection to the actress sharing the last name

However, I’ve picked a name with special significance for me “Aquila Alba”. It is better than “White Eagle” which is the non technical name for the same eagle. It has both spiritual significance and also connects to an artwork by the same name.

I changed mine, both in the App and in the PCM on the car. I started by calling it (just) Kiara, and when I settled on the composite of the two K's, I changed it both in App and on the car. I don't remember having any issues doing so, but it was without any assistance. I also don't remember if I changed it only on the App (and then it synced with the car) or if I changed it at both places. But it is now the new one at both ends.
