Name of the airship

Is there reliable evidence that the name of the airship was "Chitty Bang Bang"? In all references I could access, the airship is unnamed and referred to, e.g., as "Baron Bomburst's airship". --Lambiam 01:17, 11 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It's both a real, functional airship and a film prop. In the film it's unnamed (and would be most unlikely to be named Chitty), but the real airship was registered as Chitty Bang Bang. Andy Dingley (talk) 08:34, 11 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
