Surprised you didn't nominate Studebaker Lark variant for Daytona!
Pontiac Le Mans, too and Plymouth (Satellite) Sebring which brings me to Renault Floride.
Fairlane too was a place although really only a glorified house and garden where Henry Ford lived.
I actually remembered the Lark Daytona whilst trying to go to sleep!
Pontiac Le Mans (I owned a 65) I did on the previous page 4.
And just for you: Morris Cowley. Surprised that one has been overlooked.

Simca Vedette Beaulieu and Aronde Monthlery
Austin 10 Goodwood (apologies if I have said that already)
Goggomobil Mayfair
Citroen 2CV Sahara (the push-me pull-you 4wd version)
Bristol Blenheim
There was also a Corvair wagon named Lakewood. Several place names in the US with that moniker but the one I'm thinking of is in New Jersey
Rolls-Royce Corniche (assuming we haven't had it, I did see Camargue nominated)
I think we had Morris Cowley very early on, soon after the Oxford/Cambridge?
I am going to self-impose an embargo on planetary names but I expect there is some forgotten county in deepest USA with the name Jupiter!
The existence of a Plymouth Cambridge, incidentally (probably named for the Massachussets town) contributed to the US-market-only Austin A55 Cambrian which, badging apart, was identical to our Farina.
I still havent looked any of this up, just my faltering and occasionally jump-started memory....
There's a great long bar in Rock & Roll heaven.......
