Saeris Tal'Urduar	Posted - 2006.04.17 06:15:00 - [1] Okay not sure if this has been posted or decided or whatever, but lets move foward. Disclaimer* I've thought about it and I know CCP follows a pattern, some of the names that I like follow it also (the same pattern)...I hope. (many people are more cerebral when it comes to stuff like this, while I tend to be more visceral and like the name because it feels right.)* So here it goes *Names of the new tier-3 battlships, that I'd* like to see.** In keeping with the force of nature theme. Minmatar: Maelstrom Not in keeping with words of destruction, but in keeping with a word of power. Amarr: Overlord Sort of in keeping with the mythological theme. I have two, sorry couldnt decide. Gallente: Sphinx or Celaeno In keeping with the desert/flying/animal/or just sounds badass theme. Sorry, but two again + faction. Caldari: Foxbat or Viper Guristas Faction: Sidewinder* In keeping with the "Rattlesnake" If they have been decided...ohh well I was bored anyway.

Rofl and I don't quite know why! I quite like the minmatar one. How exactly is that pronounced to avoid embarresment on TS >.> 'mal-strom?' or 'male-strom', 'mel-strom'?

Soul Redemption	Posted - 2006.04.17 12:40:00 - [32] continuing with minmatar tredition of falling apart ships i'd say call it the "trashcan" going on with caldari being missile whXXes call it "up your tail pipe" gallante being french "La croason" and amarr being amarr "burn-in-hell-infadels"
TheKiller8	Posted - 2006.04.17 12:54:00 - [33] Caldari: Overpowered Gallente: Paris Hilton Minmattar: Mexican Spacia Enterprisia I Amarr: Phallus Enormous .: Click 2 See My Flash Animations :.
Svetlana Scarlet	Posted - 2006.04.17 14:31:00 - [34] Well, I won't pretend that this will change what CCP is going to call them in the end, but here are some ideas. Amarr -- Well, if you want to stick with end-of-the-world imagery, you could pick Revelation (I don't think they have a ship named that already, do they?), Judgement, Doomsday, or Ragnarok (though that's not Christian theology, so I don't know if it really fits the theme). Caldari -- I haven't seen any pictures, and the Caldari don't appear to have a consistent theme for their battleships, so I'm not sure what would be a good name, other than some sort of sinister animal associated with death. So you could go with the aforementioned Viper, or something like Widow, Recluse, or Black Cat. Gallente -- The Gallente battleships don't appear to have any particular theme -- just weird, domineering sounding names. I don't really have any good ideas here, to be honest. Minmatar -- I actually liked the Maelstrom idea, but you could also take Hurricane, Tornado (bonus -- it also starts with T!), or Whirlwind. I almost suggested Cyclone, and then I remembered that that's their battlecruiser (which I have two of, so I don't know why I forgot that). -- LCDR Svetlana Scarlet Deputy Quartermaster Captain, CNS Redball Express Caldari Independent Navy Reserve
Soul Redemption	Posted - 2006.04.17 14:45:00 - [35] Revelation is the amarr dreadnought
HippoKing	Posted - 2006.04.17 15:00:00 - [36] Originally by: Svetlana Scarlet Amarr -- Well, if you want to stick with end-of-the-world imagery, you could pick Revelation (I don't think they have a ship named that already, do they?), Judgement, Doomsday, or Ragnarok (though that's not Christian theology, so I don't know if it really fits the theme). revelation is the dread, and ragnarok is the minmatar titan Win a Cerberus!! sigs of the 23/24/25 hijack just as well -eris yarrrr, i shall retake my sig -HippoKing Not a chance, our 1337 sig haXx0r sk1llz are too powerful! - Wrangler Ho-Ho-Hooooooo, Merry Saturday!11 - Immy Yo ho ho and a bottle of BReeEEEEeee.... - Jacques ARRRRRRchambault Stop spamming with "QFT" >:\|. - Teblin Who pwned who? ~kieron RAWR!11 Sig Hijack!11 - Imaran
Viktor Fyretracker	Posted - 2006.04.17 15:20:00 - [37] Caldari is definatly: Vorpal Rabbit.
Plutoinum	Posted - 2006.04.17 15:26:00 - [38] Something with 'T' for Minmatar would be nice, but please not 'Tornado'. Tornado reminds me of the european aircraft, the tactical bomber or what it is. It's rather small and if I think about flying a Tornado, I always have this RL picture of a 'little' starting Tornado in my head.
MrFu	Posted - 2006.04.17 15:27:00 - [39] minnie definitively deserves ¦¦Natural Disaster`` or ¦¦Sailquake`` I need a sig
Lo3d3R	Posted - 2006.04.17 15:34:00 - [40] Edited by: Lo3d3R on 17/04/2006 15:36:04 Originally by: Saeris Tal'Urduar Amarr: Overlord agreed, nice name, lets hope the specs and bonusses live up to it, can only hope in the light of religeous names.. it might become something like Minister[b/] or [b] Reverand (spelling?) tho...
Arkanor	Posted - 2006.04.17 15:47:00 - [41] Originally by: Kaladr Foxbat?? That's the NATO codename for a MiG-25 . Caldari ships are (usually) named after birds, thus the Tier 3 battleship might follow the same route. "Shrike" might be cool, but the name is derived from such a tiny bird, Viper would be a nice one though. ________________________________________________ Originally by: Imperial Baddour I just lost my ship, and dont feel like playing anymore!
Aion Amarra	Posted - 2006.04.17 15:57:00 - [42] Like the Overlord and Maelstrom suggestions, though something beginning with A would be nice for the third Amarr BS. Annihilation maybe? That said, I was always pretty sure Maelstrom is pronounced mah-ehl-strohm. THen again I'm German and thus my sights might be skewed on that matter. _____________________ This is not the sig you're looking for. Jedi-like hand movement
Kraven Kor	Posted - 2006.04.17 15:57:00 - [43] Amarr Tier 3 Battleship: Abbadon (this would make all 3 Amarr Battleships have apocalyptic names: Apocalypse, Armageddon, Abbadon) Caldari Tier 3 Battleship: Is there a picture of it yet anywhere? The Raven kinda looks Raven-ish, the Scorpion definitely looks Scorpion-ish. Caldari names seem to be Birds of Prey or other Predator names. So, why not just call it the "Predator?" I'd have to see a picture, but how about: Apex (ecology term referring to the top of the food chain.) Gallente don't all use "mythological creatures," and then the Caldari would have stolen the Harpy from them if so I guess. And Cerberus. The other two Gallente Battleships seem to be made up latin-sounding words that imply overwhelming power (Dominix, Megathron.) So, some possible Gallente Tier 3 BS names (or, really, just good Gallente ship names for any future ships): Impetus Conqueror Suppressor Minmater Tier 3 -- I really like Maelstrom and can't come up with anything better. Strength through Unity, Discipline, and Honor!

"Shrike" might be cool, but the name is derived from such a tiny bird, Viper would be a nice one though. I think it should maybe be called the Pidgeon or maybe the Robin, Pidgeon seems fitting, its gonna be big fat ugly and move very slowly >.< O RLY?! --Jorauk Way cooler than Jorauk - Cortes
Wilfan Ret'nub	Posted - 2006.04.17 16:01:00 - [45] Edited by: Wilfan Ret''nub on 17/04/2006 16:08:52 My two bits: Amarr - Apotheosis Means "elevation to divine status". Keeps the "end of days" theme. Starts with an A like other two. Hard to pronounce, though. Minmatar - Tornado Is a weather phenomena and as noted above starts with T like the other two. Is also more destructive than a typhoon or tempest. And to Plutonium: Typhoon is also an European fighter and a WWII British ground attack plane. BTW: if Foxbat was good enough name for NATO (MiG-25 Foxbat to stick on the OMGWTFBBQ Soviet interceptor (which didn't turn out quite like they were expecting), it's good enough for Caldari.
Viktor Fyretracker	Posted - 2006.04.17 16:08:00 - [46] Caldari: Valkyrie, Spectre, Blackhawk, Falcon, Tomcat.
Jobie Thickburger	Posted - 2006.04.17 16:09:00 - [47] LOL ya know every name we come up with, CCP won't be able to use because people would say it was named because they put it here...... Lets see If I can scratch a few names off the list.... Cladari- Has "Phenoix" (sp) been taken yet? or Albatross? Gallente- "Atlas" since it flows in the Really Big sounding things catagory of Gallente Battleships Ammar- I thought Overlord was pretty good. How about "Smite"? Hmmm no that stinks, "Retrabution" (sp again) Now thats a name! Minmintar- "Duct Tape".... No, "Tundra" Mabey? not really sure of the Theme w/ Minmintar ships. W/ the force of nature, how about "Gail" (as in Gail force winds?) Well those are the names I put forth to be striken from the list being written by CCP! Can't wait to get the BPC for one though....
Arkanor	Posted - 2006.04.17 16:14:00 - [48] Originally by: Wilfan Ret'nub Edited by: Wilfan Ret''nub on 17/04/2006 16:08:52 BTW: if Foxbat was good enough name for NATO (MiG-25 Foxbat to stick on the OMGWTFBBQ Soviet interceptor (which didn't turn out quite like they were expecting), it's good enough for Caldari. You're forgetting the fact that caldari ships are nothing like the OMGWTFBBQ Soviet interceptors, those are actually fast. Unless of course the tier 3 caldari battleship is speedy ________________________________________________ Originally by: Imperial Baddour I just lost my ship, and dont feel like playing anymore!
Svetlana Scarlet	Posted - 2006.04.17 17:40:00 - [49] Originally by: HippoKing Originally by: Svetlana Scarlet Amarr -- Well, if you want to stick with end-of-the-world imagery, you could pick Revelation (I don't think they have a ship named that already, do they?), Judgement, Doomsday, or Ragnarok (though that's not Christian theology, so I don't know if it really fits the theme). revelation is the dread, and ragnarok is the minmatar titan Doh, crap. Well, I guess you know I don't have a lot of experience with capital ships then. My other two still work -- I like the Apotheosis and Abbadon suggestions as well. -- LCDR Svetlana Scarlet Deputy Quartermaster Captain, CNS Redball Express Caldari Independent Navy Reserve
SolarKnight	Posted - 2006.04.17 17:42:00 - [50] Phoenix is the caldari Dreadnaught. The Light in the Darkness Origin Systems is Recruiting http://Origin.zapto.org
schurem	Posted - 2006.04.17 18:28:00 - [51] Minmatar: Tornado (that euro bomber may be small, but its LOUD!) Gallente: Myrmidon (greek warrior, sounds cool too) Amarr: Plague (would work really well for a drone carrier) Caldari: Raptor (missile spreading terminator of the skies) <<<< No Boundaries, No Fences, Fly Free Or Die Trying >>>> Typhoon for the win. Nastier than whats faster, faster than whats nastier!
Nikolai Nuvolari	Posted - 2006.04.17 18:44:00 - [52] Originally by: Soul Redemption going on with caldari being missile whXXes call it "up your tail pipe" It's going to have 8 railguns, so I don't really think that works... Originally by: TheKiller8 Caldari: Overpowered Again, railguns, hence underpowered, hence NO. Originally by: Arkanor Originally by: Kaladr Foxbat?? That's the NATO codename for a MiG-25 . Yeah, not sure if the fastest jet fighter ever is a good name for the slowest EVE battleship ever... Originally by: Kraven Kor Gallente don't all use "mythological creatures," and then the Caldari would have stolen the Harpy from them if so I guess. Harpy is also the name of the largest type of eagle. It eats monkeys. Originally by: Kraven Kor And Cerberus. No excuse there. Originally by: Viktor Fyretracker Caldari: Valkyrie I like that Originally by: Viktor Fyretracker Spectre No, sounds like a Force Recon ship Originally by: Viktor Fyretracker Blackhawk Mmmm...maybe... Originally by: Viktor Fyretracker Falcon Already used for the Caldari Force Recon ship Originally by: Viktor Firetracker Tomcat Meh, if it's a reference to male cats, then I don't like it, if it's a reference to the F-14 then I still don't like it. Originally by: Jobie Thickburger Cladari- Has "Phenoix" (sp) been taken yet? Yes, it's our Dreadnaught Originally by: Jobie Thickburger or Albatross? NO! Originally by: schurem Caldari: Raptor (missile spreading terminator of the skies) (A) The Caldari battleship will have 8 railguns. (B) Raptor has been one of the Caldari interceptors for a very, very long time. Wow, that was the worst suggestion in this whole thread. I think the Caldari one should either be "Valkyrie" like Viktor said, or "Lynx". -------- Tom Thumb > for a nut case you rawk [04:21:15] Mebrithiel Ju'wien > Nik's bio 4tw btw [07:38:53] Graelyn > Nikolai for Dev 108!

SpaceDrake Taleweaver	Posted - 2006.04.17 19:17:00 - [57] Jeez people. The Caldari BS is going to be big and nasty with railguns. It'll need a bird theme. Haven't you people ever heard of a Roc? Tornado gets my vote for the Minnies BTW, it'd complete the reference to an old competitor. Apothesis would be awesome for the Amarr, and why do I have a feeling that the Gallente one will be "Victrix" or "Nike"? --- What good are actions if there's no one to tell the tale afterward?... Player of the character "Amarii Oulasangeri".

Ti anna	Posted - 2006.04.17 19:26:00 - [60] I think a good name for the new Caldari BS would be a Loon, but Dodo works .
Lisento Slaven	Posted - 2006.04.17 20:14:00 - [61] I think they should just call the Amarr ship "Ted Danson" since he looks amarrian now. He's Amarrian right?
Shaelin Corpius	Posted - 2006.04.17 20:51:00 - [62] Caldari - "Snipe" since it will have 8 railguns, and that is a bird. Gallente - "Ultradomiraxothron" I'd love to fly that to have to hear peeps pronounce it in coms. Minmatar - "El Garbaje Grande" Following in the tradition of their elite flying garbage cans. Amarr - "Purgatory" Something churchy that hasn't been used yet. Has to do with death too.

Fatima Nefestis	Posted - 2006.04.19 00:03:00 - [80] I like the suggestion of Roc for the Caldari battleship: the word has a deliciously blunt and forceful sound to it which fits in well with the Caldari combat ethos. Failing that, Drake might fit as well. Apotheosis and Abaddon both seem right for the Amarr battleship; if it's confirmed to be a drone carrier, might Apostle - suggesting something that supports rather than acts directly - also be appropriate? Maelstrom seems the most fitting suggesting for the Minmatar battleship so far; it doesn't carry quite the impression of speed and force that Tempest and Typhoon do, but rather a sense of a monstrous, malevolent presence, something that swallows ships whole. Neither Hurricane or Tornado sound quite right, to me. Of course, if they choose to deviate from the 'forces of nature' theme and go more with the 'words of violence' theme that's prevalent through most other Minmatar ships, I'd be happy to see Gorger or Devourer up for consideration. Given the relative inconsistency of the Gallente ship naming schemes, the best I can ideas I can come up with are Hyperion or some cool-sounding pseudo-gibberish like Invicator or Creolos. Given that we already have a Lachesis, I wouldn't complain if an Atropos or Clotho were to follow.

Also, it's the Minmatar using Norse names, not Gallente. There's already an "Angel Viper", which is a pretty deadly elite frig. Actually, I'd like to see more Angel snakes: Boa, Asp... can't imagine why. God did I love shooting up Vipers, Asps, Boas. Vipers are still good fun to shoot up. Roc and Thunderbird are spot on, and Annihilation, sure why not, although "Imperator" gave me a chuckle for several reasons. Maelstrom ain't bad.

Originally by: Arcturus Lynx Caldari BS l3: Lynx (Best name i think, keeping with the cat theme, ferox caracal ect.) Hmm, the Mordus legion name a lot of their ships after cats of prey, which is why I always sort of assumed there's so few player ships called after cats (the Jaguar and Cheetah). But Lynx is indeed still free. Objection however on following any Caldari cat theme: Caracals are desert foxes (trivia of the day: Rommel had a tame one), and Ferox, as far as I can tell, means "wild" in latin and while there's a few scientific species names containing "ferox" they're plants and ants. Originally by: Arcturus Lynx Matari BS l3: Hurricane (good name) Agreed. And so did people trying to find Tech 2 Battleship names in May 2005. Actually maybe it's a good idea not to go to extremes and leave some space for Tech 2. I may have to withdraw my earlier views on Purgatory and Dragon to reserve that for Tech 2 battleships, along with Hurricaine. Originally by: Arcturus Lynx Just some clarifications, Minmatar have nothing to do with Norse, Celt, Viking or general Euro Mythology. As the fiction describes they are from an African descendancy henceforce the nature themes ect. We still like to name ships Norse all the same, ref. Muninn, Huginn, Nidhoggur, Ragnarok, Naglfar. But I agree on sticking with furious winds for battleships. Funny, EvE (Environment vs. Environment, anyone?) now has so many different ships that it seems to be quite a profession to be able to tell them all apart, quickly. Could be a handy fleet commander skill. What do you call primary out of a Firetail, Brutix, Absolution, Raptor, Hel, Heretic, Bhaalgorn, Merlin, Rook, Claymore, Velator, Wreathe, Firetail, Comet, and Armageddon?

For some reason I can't come up with one that goes with Armeggedon and Apocolypse, but Overlord just doesn't do it.

Kraven Kor	Posted - 2006.04.19 17:11:00 - [138] Edited by: Kraven Kor on 19/04/2006 17:14:14 Originally by: Amandi Casimi Edited by: Amandi Casimi on 19/04/2006 14:26:14 Overload is not a name in line with the other two Amarr battleships. Armeggedon and Apocolypse have nothing to do with the name Overlord. It would have to be a name that reflects the end of the world as we know it resulting from a huge battle. For some reason I can't come up with one that goes with Armeggedon and Apocolypse, but Overlord just doesn't do it. Edit: Opps.... someone did come up with something suitable for Amarr that goes along with them. Anniliation (sp?). That would fit. I posted Abaddon as the Tier 3 Amarr BS name. Abaddon is a reference to some spirit called "the destroyer" in the Revelations prophecy of christian mythology. It is also the name of a rogue star that some nutjobs believed was going to collide with our solar system back in the 70's or something. I really like Dragon for the Caldari BS. Though, somehow Dragon seems more fitting for a close-range ship. Dunno why. Strength through Unity, Discipline, and Honor!

caldicott	Posted - 2006.04.19 17:36:00 - [140] Minmatar one has to be the Black Widow, extremly deadly. As the song goes infact 'Do you know that the Black Widows' kiss is fifteen times more deadlier than that of the Rattlesnake? You see, her venom is highly neurotoxic, which is to say, it attacks the central nervous system, causing intense pain, profuse sweating, difficulty in breathing, loss of conciousness, violant convultions and finally,....er.. death.! You know, i think what i love most about her, is her inborn need to dominate, Posess.' sorry if its been proposed already :)

The P-38 was the best gun platform of all four of them, because it had nose-mounted guns instead of wing-mounted guns. If nothing else, at least the P-47 had MORE guns than the 51 or the Spitfire.

Ante	Posted - 2006.04.22 04:52:00 - [210] Originally by: Nikolai Nuvolari Originally by: Malthros Zenobia If you go with the bird-theme, I think a great name for the Caldari BS would be: Roc (the bigass mythical birds, would fit perfectly) Already been mentioned multiple times, genius Good to see we have another vote for that, though! And another. Great name, seriously.
Joerd Toastius	Posted - 2006.04.22 10:35:00 - [211] The Minmatar one clearly needs to be called "Mistral" (or the original Provencal version which is I believe "Maestral"), after the strong cold wind which blows down valleys in southern France, and which means (more or less, in the original version) "Master Wind".
j0sephine	Posted - 2006.04.22 11:10:00 - [212] "Ironic name considering the shape of the ship" Well, it was either that or Cerigo, the offspring of Uranus... but how many would get that ;s But a bit more seriously, i kind of like Briareos as possible name for Gallente ship... Dark Shikari is likely to chime in that's used in certain anime, but it origins as the name of hundred-handed tree-like giant, largest of his kind. Rather suitable for top tier battleship...

Jin Entres	Posted - 2006.04.22 14:46:00 - [226] First, apologies if my suggestions have been made already. I did not read all of the replies in the thread. Minmatar - Whirlpool / Vortex Originally by: Dictionary.com A rapidly rotating current of water; a vortex / A spiral motion of fluid within a limited area, especially a whirling mass of water or air that sucks everything near it toward its center. Amarr - Resolution Originally by: Dictionary.com The state or quality of being resolute; firm determination. Gallente - Aether Originally by: Wikipedia Aether (AithOr Greek for Ether), in Greek mythology, is one of the Protogenos (first-born) the personification of the "upper sky", space and heaven, the elemental god of the Bright, Glowing, Upper Air. He is the pure, upper air that the gods breathe, as opposed to "aer" (the gloomy lower air of the Earth), which mortals breathed. In Hesiod's Theogony he was the son of Erebus and Nyx... Caldari - Suzaku Originally by: Wikipedia In Japan, the influence of the five Buddhist elements has obscured the origins of the Ssu Ling. Under this system, Byakko, the White Tiger, is connected with the element wind; Genbu, the Black Tortise, with earth; Seiryu, the Blue Dragon, with water; and Suzaku, the Red Phoenix, with fire.

Smagd	Posted - 2006.04.25 09:36:00 - [249] Meh, a bit of research (at least use that new-fangled search button upper right hand side, it's great!!!!11!!) could help in avoiding some of the embarassments. I'm sure CCP does a LOT of research before naming ships. That search also goes through the items database, so existing ship names (maybe excluding faction ships) would be found. Also, posts further above in this thread with the same names already mentioned will be found. Oh and while I'm waffling about research: If wikipedia isn't lying there is indeed a Cerberus snake. It's really easy finding out this stuff, why do so few people bother these days? Oh: Personal opinion on ship names: While "Roc" is impressive, I'd reserve it for future capital or tech 2 ships. I've seen a few very good suggestions for the Minmatar and Amarr tier-3 battleships (namely, Hurricaine or even Maelstrom, and Annihilation, or Purgatory) but somehow none of the Caldari and Gallenteans "click". Of course, Gallenteans appear just random to me so whatever! Ravens aren't even very big birds. Eagles and harpies (yes that is a bird, check wikipedia) are far bigger. Condor, maybe? Keep them rolling, this is very interesting.
Kalaan Oratay	Posted - 2006.04.25 09:38:00 - [250] Oh noes, you didnt just go on about how people arent checking names and then just suggest Condor as a Caldari name, did you? ---

My guess is someone related cerberus to a snake since the cerberus from the mythology has snake parts on his body. Agreed on the general Wikipedia mistrust. There is however a bit of peer review going on, the same reason why Linux isn't just a bunch of viri and trojans. Further backing up the Wikipedia entries are some google searches. Nonetheless, it's a damn obscure snake. Same with the harpy really, maybe: Just given the name you'd probably associate it more to the mythical reference. So I retract this, let's not count either as a very prominent animal reference and stick with mythical for tech 2. Originally by: Malus NalJa'ka As for the search function ... it's borked, doesn't work that well really. Well it does find the Items Database entries. Sure didn't use it myself for Condors ouch. Tornado, Torrent and Tsunami are good, too. Abomination is good. Harrier is the first Caldari one I like. Agamemnon, I'm doubtful about using ancient people names. Same goes for more mythical references like Icarus, Pegasus, Dragon, Hydra, Banshee, Siren. Funny isn't it, how it is easiest to agree on the ROLE of the Caldari battle (Railboat) and hardest to decide on its name. All right, Gallente. Phobos, nice, but I believe there may be an elite cruiser somewhere in the game named like that already based on the Thorax (but not finished). Aether is nice. Still can't come up with anything nice myself.
Malus NalJa'ka	Posted - 2006.04.25 13:49:00 - [263] there are indeed some obscure references to the "Phobos". It being a pink Thorax ( wrong in so many ways !! ).

Caldari: Whoever suggested the Roc I think they were onto a winner, it just seems appropriate for the top caldari battleship. Gallente: Gigantes (greek origins, supposedly the footsoldiers of the Titans in the war with the Olympians) although I'm not a huge fan of that name. Otherwise maybe something like the Triton? Minnies: I think Maelstrom does fit them well. Amarr: Lots of good suggestions, personally I wouldn't mind something like Revelation. edit: one of the names is actually in the game.

Joerd Toastius	Posted - 2006.04.25 15:24:00 - [266] More thinking. Gallente - "Hyperion", because a) he was a titan and b) the name sounds bad-ass. Matari either Maelstrom or Maestral sound good. Caldari I think "Roc" is probably a pretty good one, although "Peregrine" isn't a bad shout either (although it's probably more suited to a smaller ship). Other possibles here include Cardinal and Martlet, both of which I think would be pretty reasonable. Amarr I'm not sure on - "Annihilation" kinda fits the BS theme but I'm not sure it's a great ship name. "Emperor" and "Deity" are both kinda neat but I'm not sure they're really suitable. "Apostle" would be a great one too but only if Amarr religion includes a similar reference, which I'm not sure it does. Personally I think the best name would be "Genocide", because it kinda captures the Amarrian approach to conflict.

Phaese	Posted - 2006.04.26 04:35:00 - [276] Maelstrom is a brilliant name for the next Matari BS; it sounds sweet and fits perfectly with the other two BSs. Torrent is also a very good suggestion. Caldari is hard... Viper is alright; I think Roc, Pegasus, and Icarus are pretty cool, too. For the Amarr BS, there's a name that fits perfectly... Annihilation. Finally, Gallante... Gallante BSs are unique relative to other Gallante ships in that they don't really have the mythological theme going on. Regardless, Hyperion and Phobos are by far my favorites, if only because they sound badass.

Quote: Quote: Ammar: Annihilation The double 'n' doesn't sit well with me. A single one would be worse. 6 years back people frequently misspelled things "centennial", from greek for related to 100 years. "Centenial", well let's just say that it shares roots with certain anatomical parts. Of course "Annihilation" is a bit trickier: "nihil" means "nothing", and the "a-" prefix probably means "towards". (here my greek fades). I think it's usualy that a single "a-" prefix will double the next vowel. "Towards nothing" isn't so bad. do

Joerd Toastius	Posted - 2006.04.29 23:18:00 - [294] TBH, if you're looking to name the Caldari one according to the Intel schema rather than the AMD one, I think there are better choices than "Nightingale". To throw some out at random: Jackdaw, Magpie, Gannet, Shearwater, Loon (ah, go on...), Bittern, Kite, Rail (ya rly), Nightjar (actually not a bad one), Kingfisher, Hornbill (again pretty fitting), Sparrow (ironic) etc - and that's just classes of birds. The P4 was the Williamette, the A64 was the Clawhammer. AMD clearly have the more "badass" name, but the Intel one sounds like it has less to prove. I think this could be a cool angle here for the Caldari - rather than trying to go for the biggest, baddest bird you can think of, go for something classy and understated.

It's my bad memory. I thought it had a "slight" in it, but it doesn't: [quote Douglas Adams] Since he had left Denmark the previous afternoon, he had been through types 33 (light *****ing drizzle which made the roads slippery), 39 ( heavy spotting), 47 to 51 (vertical light drizzle through to sharply slanting light to moderate drizzle freshening), 87 and 88 (two finely distinguished varieties of vertical torrential downpour), 100 (post-downpour squalling, cold), all the seastorm types between 192 and 213 at once, 123, 124, 126, 127 (mild and intermediate cold gusting, regular and syncopated cab-drumming), 11 (breezy droplets), and now his least favourite of all, 17.

Qolde	Posted - 2006.04.30 06:50:00 - [300] Tsunami or Torrent for Minmatar. Tornado and Twister are corny for space ship names. Maelstrom is a really good name, but it doesn't start with a T. It could be a tech 1 tier 2 BC though. For Amarr, Annihiliator is good. Caldari tier 3 battleship, in keeping tradition with its predatory bird names, I dub thee Ostrich Gallente has two names that make their battleships sound mean and big. Dominix and megathron.

Saevus Mortis	Posted - 2006.05.01 10:32:00 - [316] Amarr Annihilation is good in fitting with the A-names and apocalyptic themes, but perhaps we should break with those lest the amarr get too boring? Judicator and Imperator both have nice rings to them, and are at least somewhat related to either the prevailing theme (end times -> final judgement) or the amarr's incessant emperor cheerleading. Caldari I'll throw my support behind Roc. It's a straightforward, aggressive, blunt word. Remind anybody of recently released concept art? Gallente Off once again to the sumerian/akkadian pantheons. How about Nergal or Marduk? Another good one would be Lashkar, a city in Madhya Pradesh province of India. It breaks the theme of old gods/nonsense latin sounding names, but it just has a nice ring to it. Minmatar Maelstrom's good. Hurricane or Tsunami? Not so much. Unfortunately, I think both the 'forces of nature' and 'Norse Mythology' trends for the mataris are rapidly becoming dry holes as far as having cool names that are easily pronounced. Damn shame they already named the freighter Fenrir, because the new BS is aggressive enoungh looking that the fenris wolf would have been a good conceptual match with it.

Ergo Morte	Posted - 2006.05.10 23:59:00 - [327] in keeping with the most recent naming convention for Gallente ships how about Themis. Themis, in Greek mythology, one of the Titans, the daughter of Uranus and Gaea, Heaven and Earth, and the mother of the three Fates and the Seasons. The goddess of divine justice and law, Themis was the constant companion of the god Zeus and sat beside him on Olympus. In ancient art she is represented holding aloft a pair of scales on which she weighs the claims of opposing parties.

Nicholai Pestot Gallente	Posted - 2006.07.21 10:49:00 - [371] Hmm, how about calling the Gallente battleship the 'Seignus' Its a slight twist on a french word for a lord (in some uses) The Battlecruiser could be a 'Ruchees' Same again but for 'hive' ________________ What you do is you store up the rage, let it fester while you gain strength, then use it to gank those weaker than you... and so the circle of life is complete
Lucre STK Scientific Ascendant Frontier	Posted - 2006.07.21 10:59:00 - [372] Abbadon, Apotheosis and Annihilation are all excellent suggestions. Any would be good. For the Caldari, Roc and Dragon should be reserved for capital ships. Snipe is cool but almost too appropriate. Though if went with venomous creatures (cf Scorpion) rather than birds, you could have Tarantula or Black Widow (imagine a BS with a Damnation paint-job!). (But not Booby. Would be wasted on battleship (BBs) when they could be destroyers (DDs) or even frigates (FFs)... ) Minmatar, has to be Tornado. Just goes too well with Typhoon and Tempest, both for the meteorologists and for the aviation buffs! Gallente... Forced to agree with the poster who said the prevailing principle is something Latiny that sounds impressive. So something like Ultrax, Extremus, Excelsis, Aphelion...
Mikal Drey Purgatorial Janitors Inc. Knights Of the Southerncross	Posted - 2006.07.21 12:14:00 - [373] Minmatar Tornado - NO as is suggests speed Malestrom - nice but "Malestrom Alliance" Hurricane - too close to cyclone and would be more fitting as a tier 1 name TAKU Wind :A strong, gusty, east-northeast wind, occurring in the vicinity of Juneau, Alaska, between October and March. At the mouth of the Taku River, after which it is named, it sometimes attains hurricane force TEHUANtepecer A violent squally wind from north or north-northeast the Gulf of Tehuantepec (south of southern Mexico) in winter. It originates in the Gulf of Mexico as a norther which crosses the isthmus and blows through the gap between the Mexican and Guatamalan mountains.

Papa Ina GoonWaffe	Posted - 2006.07.21 15:18:00 - [380] I quite like "Tsunami" for the Minmatar, though personally I hope they don't go with the same starting letter for the name so the next time we can all think a little more originally (I'm looking at you Amarr/Minmatar decider person). I was thinking about "Hrafnagaldr" aswell but it only fits with the capital naming scheme. But then I think that the Armageddon should have been named Meggido so my opinion is probably a bit skewed. Also, taken literally, Apocalypse and Revelation mean the same thing so that naming scheme can go out of the window too. But you do so insist on using the boring judeo-christian meanings so in line with that I'd take an Amarr "Rapture" any day. Caldari and Gallente can sort themselves out.
Doppleganger Minmatar	Posted - 2006.07.21 15:22:00 - [381] Ok I didnt read most of this old thread except a few pages but I wish the minmatar ship could be a different name then others suggested. Before I joined EVE in Beta I played Jumpgate for 2+ ys as a quantar pilot and every time I hear the minmatar ship names I dont think about eve ships but about Jumpgate Ships. If you look at the green ships at the bottom of that linked page I'm starting to think the minmatars must have some long lost relations with the quants or at least in their ship naming abilities. I prefered the ship naming line of most the minmatar ships when I joined in beta... stabber, rupture, slasher, wreathe, rifter and so on... more violating sounding names then strong breezes. .

If you can let go of the T-thing, then Mistral or Chinook sound pretty cool, and refer to stormy or windy weather. Maybe Chinook is a good one for the BC, and Mistral or Tumult for the BS. (is there already a Chinook?) I like the suggestions of Roc for the Caldari BS and Dragon or Wyvern for the BC. Those are both real good ideas. Amarr "Abbadon" for the BS is another good one. I didn't see anyone suggest "Abyss" - what do you think of that? For the BC, how about "Thaumaturge" or "Magus"? Or even "Exorcist?" I think I'm onto something giving the Gallente BS a named derived from the French word "ligotage." But it doesn't sound very menacing, alas. Not like Dominix. Oh! How about Macerex from the French "macTrer" - "to grind." And it's nickname will become Maxi-wreck.

Nikolai Nuvolari Caldari	Posted - 2006.07.22 04:09:00 - [391] Necroing is bad. However: Originally by: Xorus Originally by: Kaz Empire Let's look deeper into this for BC and BS : Caldari gets the love of animals ( Ferox (ok, exception here) I see your claim and raise you some Ferox Actually, I'm completely sure this is what "Ferox" refers to. Originally by: Mikal Drey Tornado - NO as is suggests speed It SHOULD be fast, with a 5% max velocity bonus, a 7.5% projectile tracking bonus, an 8/6/6 slot layout with a 7/3 or 8/3 slot layout, and more shields than armor...basically a huge, and completely awesome, Stabber. Anyway, here's what I'm thinking right now: Amarr: Abaddon [already been decided, no point discussing this] Caldari: Roc [There are a lot of objections to this, but I'm clinging to the hope that if it gets used enough, the devs will accept it as fact and use the name Gallente: Aegis [Not only does it SOUND right, it's even fits visually...the round flat engine ring looks a bit like a small round shield, also known as an aegis!] Minmatar: Tornado [The idea of a rotating tornado makes me think of autocannons spinning to track a target at close range, or the ship itself orbiting at high speed, which it should be doing a lot if they make it into the super-Stabber I'm hoping for.] ------------------ Originally by: kieron Buy ISK for RL cash here!

Armageddon is the name of the battle to end all battles (happens in the valley of Maggedo), it is spoken about in the book of Revelation. Saying armageddon and apocalypse are the same thing is like saying Death Star and Star Wars are the same. They sure are related to one another but they aren't the same.
