A while ago we reported that Alfa Romeo has started a contest for the naming of its future compact "Junior" that will be launched in 2009. From all the names send, Alfa Romeo chooses 12.

The name came from: Italy, France, Spain, Germany, England and Japan and Alfo Romeo chose two names for every country. In the next phase, from Nov. 1 to 15 the winner will be voted.

And here are the 12 nominees: Agea, Enos, Everso, Fira, Furiosa, Milo, Mod, Nevo, Solea, Sparvo, Velvetta, Ventura.

I don't know about you, but I kind of got attached of the "Junior" name and none of this twelve inspire me faith.
