I name all my salvage ships the Jester. Because they loot things. Lute. Loot. Get it?
My Hulk is called The Incredible. By extension, my Mack is The Above Average.
My Orca is the Happy Little Narwhal. 'Cause it's a whale, isn't it?
My Mammoth is the Angus. Because it handles like a cow, and is tasty gank bait.
My mission ships are all named after acts of violence, appropriate to their role. Except any Ruptures I run. Those are called the Hernia. Because PUNS. |

Mac should be "The Knife.' Or maybe 'Overcoat.'

First I had a name for each ship type and would name all ships of that type the same. Hurricanes = Oppressor's, Drake's = Enforcer's, Caracal's = Tomahawks, Thrasher's = Pursuer's, Rifter's Hunter's.
When I joined RvB I used to by US Navy designation like FF for a Frigate followed by the order in which they were assembled, 101, 102, 103, 104 and so on.
Now I use MLP FIM Characters for RvB Ships and random names for ships outside of RvB. Like my Raven the Nevermore which was my first Battleship and now a hanger ornament I keep for sentimental reasons, my Exploration Wolf is Indiana or my Exploration Probe is Jones, my old Slicer is Gallows.

I tend to put a numerical prefix on all my ships so I can easily ID what kinds of fits they have.
As for the actual names of my ships... I'm quite find of using sexual terms or naming my ships for what they look like. Change isn't bad, but it isn't always good. Sometimes, the oldest and most simple of things can be the most elegant and effective. |

I name my ships after A Song of Ice and Fire (Game of Thrones) characters.
Amarr ships = House Lannister Minmatar ships = House Targaryen Gallente ships = House Stark Caldari ships = House Baratheon
The characters don't necessarily have to belong to the house, but being associated with it is enough for me (eg. Jorah = Targaryen). Pirate ships are usually just other random characters.

I'm a huge fan of Iain Banks and The Culture series and totally adore his naming conventions, a few I've stolen but most are in tribute. Not all of these are still extant, some have yet to be used, a few popped into my head while writing and I can't wait to apply them.

I usually resort to childish innuendo when choosing my ship names or base the ship name from one of my friends moment of hilarious misfortune.
Navy Dominix is called Sausage Wallet Navy Megathron is called Spindle Legs Shopping Atron called Filthy Boobs!

Renier Gaden wrote:About two weeks after starting the game back in 2008 I was living in Low Sec. A pirate caught me ratting and killed my Cormorant. I came back in a Kestrel which he killed as well. He asked if I was going to come out again. I told him that I did not have any more ships. I told him it was ok though because I could mine enough in an Ibis to build a Bantam, and then mine enough in that to build another Kestrel. But that in the mean time I would be willing to duel him in equally fit IbisGÇÖ if he wanted.
He gave me an Osprey. I could not even fly a cruiser yet, and I certainly could not afford to buy one. That was a big deal to me at the time.
I named it GÇ£The GiftGÇ¥ and it still holds a great deal of sentimental value to me.

A lot of my combat vessels I name after different types of dragons. The D&D geek in me I guess.
