Thanks for that Kevin, it's an incredible list and quite the accomplishment.

I'm not sure it it helps me out. There's a sprinkling of armoured cars with names but not enough to confirm whether they were universally used or just up to a certain date or by certain units (or if enough photographs were taken to tell). I expect that if, say, pre 1943 British and Canadian armoured car units used them then all units did. I think also some of the Humber car names in NW Europe could be crew's choice or ceremonial names rather than squadron names. The photo evidence I've seen would suggest names were not common post 1943.

In your experience, would squadron names be used on armoured cars in Italy or NW Europe in 1944-45?
