With the exception of a few dedicated folks who already have personalized license plates declaring their canine adoration, nobody’s going to want to drive a Kia K9. Thankfully, K9 will only be used in Korea where the car will be first introduced. The vehicle’s code name, KH, is still the placeholder until they can come up with something better.

And that’s where you come in. Kia’s looking for help naming this new, rear-wheel drive flagship sedan. It’s related to the Equus and Genesis and will likely carry the same V6 and V8 engines and the eight-speed automatic.

Kia’s accepting names on Facebook, but have made no promises guaranteeing a winner from there. Too bad, Halcyon, Chimera, Prime and 750i could be good.
