Help me name my jeep

   Background story of my 48 cj2a. My dad has a 47 he calls “little Willy” it was his hunting rig my entire child hood and I loved it. My grandpa bought it for him and he restored it and got it running but I was just a little kid when during all of that. I loved riding around in it with him. Long story short my grandpa also had a 48 but he barely drove it. It was also well known that I wanted that jeep when he passed away. Well he’s still alive at 84 years old but bought himself a brand new 4 door jeep a few years ago and so he called me and told me to come get my jeep! I was so excited I went and picked it up. It had been sitting for a long time and barely ran. I’m a total newbie mechanic but after doing a few things and learning from others on here I was able to get it up and running well enough to use. Took it up elk hunting for the first time this year and love it! It’s a maroon ish color and tons of fun. I’ll post a few pics and I welcome some suggestions for a name. I had the idea of the basic “old red” or maybe even “gramps” but I’d love to hear some other ideas.
