Basically I'm bored while I'm doing about twenty million jumps because my CEO sucks. Although he never heard me say that
But yeah, is there a set pattern to the names of the ship classes?
Caldari have birds as their main with the exception being the Scorpion. (If I can remember)
Amarr, their ship classes seem to come from the bible. Which isn't that farfetched considering they're suppose to the be religious race in EVE.
Although I'm slightly stumped at the Minmatar and Gallente ship classes. Minnie's are like blade weapons then they have the "Nomad" as a name for an Elite cruiser.
I literally have no clue with Gallente.
Just a thought while I pass the jumps away.

Caracal is a wild cat.
Oh and Merlin is a small bird of prey, no a wizard. (I didn't know that!) =] ------

Caldari are bird-obsessed!
Ibis is a water-dwelling bird which is a symbol of strength in Egypt Merlin is a small bird which is part of the Falcon family. Kestrel is similar. Blackbird is a bird. Condor is a vulture-type bird. Heron is a wading bird. Griffin is part-bird part-lion mythical creature Moa is a prehistoric bird which was basically a big ferocious DoDo. Osprey is an eagle-type bird. Raven is a bird.
Scorpion is a bird. No, wait, it's not!

God knows where the gallente names come from.
thorax - body part iteron - ? navitas - something navigation-y, probly Imicus - Sounds kinda Egyptian Maulus - ? Vexor - someone who torments you mentally? megathron - totally lost on this one, other than the fact it sounds huge and dangerous, which it is.
That might be the link... names that just sound pretty cool. Sounds typically European... .
