I’m ordering a Lauf Seigla in moss green. I give my bikes a lady’s name and looking for suggestions for this new lass.
My Mt. bike (GT Timberline) is “Greta”, my old roadie/full time on the Zwift now (Cannondale R2000) is “Goldie” because she’s the classic Cannondale gold color, my new roadie is a metallic blue Rose Reveal that is named “Rosie” for the obvious reason and I’m not that creative.
I’m having trouble coming up with a name for the Lauf that is somehow related to the color or maker or model name.
Let me see what y’all come up with.

Got the Pink. She’s called Pinky
the Green Hornet
Martin
Green Reaper. You got my dream bike… happy trails.
Steve
Sir James hammingway the fourth of worcestershire
Green Dragon. 🐉
Kate (as in Kate Moss)
Or Sigrid…kinda close to Seglia
Sage. Olive. Fern. Jade. Clover. Briar.
*Björk* as they both come from Iceland
You can do whatever you want, but I would politely ask you not to name her Gamora, because that’s what I’m naming my new green gravel bike.
Lucinda.
Diana, as Wonderwoman, or Gaia since it’s green.
I have the very same bike (without the suspension). Are they painting the rivnuts (the rivets/nuts the bottle cages and bento boxes attach to) yet? Or are they still the original silver color? Just yesterday I went to Hobby Lobby to pick up some green paint and a few brushes to try to make them less obvious. So my name for the bike might be “prima donna” — fancy bike, and knows it and expects you to handle the details 🤣
Bob
Make it the anti-bike and call him Grinch. Gravel by inch.
Frank the Tank
Ziggy.
Shriek
Kermit the frog. Or miss piggy his one true love
Green like that, call it Fiona… from Shrek.
Don’t forget the pronouns, “it/they”?
Marlene
Katie Moss. People who ride her get to call her Katie.
Mine is named after the daughter of norse explorer, Erik the Red. Freydís (Eriksdottir).
Her brother was Lief Eriksson.
