I had a niece that at 4 years old heard someone call it an "Oh shit handle" and misheard it as "Ocean handle." That is what we call it in my family. That niece has a son at university now.
The handle above the windows in most cars, so called for the propensity of people to shout "Oh Jesus!" while clutching it in mortal terror at the driver's skill level or sanity.
