In this paper, we propose a hierarchical and hash-based naming scheme for Vehicular Information Centric Networks (VICNs). Our proposed naming scheme makes the best use of the features offered by hierarchical as well as hash-based naming schemes. The hierarchical part of the content name contains information about content owner or generator, content type, sub-types, and attributes of the digital content itself that is shared between vehicles. It serves two main purposes: first, it helps in minimizing the routing table by aggregating the names and simplifying the routing decisions. Second, it contains attributes, spatial, temporal and their range information to easily find and resolve the content. The hash part uniquely identifies the digital content required for VICN applications.
