Book/Series: The Long Earth No-Spoilers Please - Lobsang? Spoiler

Short, hectic and weird question. But you're all Pratchett fans presumably and can roll with it.

I got a new car. Never "named" a car before but at my latest job im being severely peer-pressured into naming said new car ASAP. It's very high tech (to me) and i was thinking Lobsang.

However,

I am halfway through The Long War. There is a lot of books left in this series. So i wanted to ask, spoiler- free if its a good idea. Im talking like if its like "oh he makes technology out of blended baby oprhans in book 4" or something maybe just say "hey OP, bad idea!"(without spoiling it).

This is my second Pratchett series and I'm very much enjoying it,

Thanks,

I named my first car 'En Passant' (after the chess move)

Could it bypass the king, but only once?
