i think the fit would get more attention with a better name.
people don't even know what it is... and the name doesnt help any.

honda should have been a bit ballsy.

i say call it the honda bulldog. ...with a cool bulldog face insignia.

bulldogs are funky and could use a little more power, but are lovable nevertheless... just like the fit.

Funky Fit

Okay..... but the the Fit just fits the Fit...
it is kinda funky because it's a verb describing a noun.

"Fit" sounds perfectly fine, it fits in with all the other random, meaningless quality of Honda car names (civic, accord, odyssey, del sol, prelude, ETC). If it had a word with some sort of concrete quality to it like "bulldog", it loses the charm. Maybe if they sold the Chevy Cruze as the "Bulldog" it'd work much better - it fits with the american company's image and naming style (while Cruze doesn't fit in at all). Imagine the current Mazda3's being sold as the Mazda Smile - I can see that happening in Japan but here in the USA sales would probably drop dramatically due to the name, not to mention the atrocious styling.

I love the name! Plus, it describes the car well. Can't deny that.

There's just one problem with the "Jazz" name: it's also the name of another Honda from the mid-1980s.

But yeah, personally I like the Jazz name more.
