Osprey: Sutter's Mill
Kestrel: Farragut
Condor: Constitution

Current Ferox- Railox
Future Ferox- Oddball (how many railox's do you see?
if i get an interceptor- Aurora borealis (cool to watch, but powerless with basic protection)
when i get the caldari rail BS- Halcyon (the Pillar of Autumn was a Halcyon class ship. It was overmassed, and a joke for offense. But, it was chock full of guns.)
So i actually think of my names.
My signature has the anti-mod defense of insignificance! |

I know one person who named their Caracal as "George Michael"...
Because "it's a massive cruiser"
such bad taste deserves an award, I think.

The Continental Army suffered from a severe lack of supplies while camped at Valley Forge. Unfortunately, your Badger Mk II was not there to resupply them.

Whenever I've flown a Ferox, it was ALWAYS a railox, except for one bizarre experiment involving heavy FOF missiles, nosferatus, and a monstrous tank.

Aw come on, the Pillar of Autumn was a tiny little obsolete cruiser, this is gonna be a fancy new sniper ship, do you REALLY need to give it a name like that?
I'm gonna name mine G.S. Deschain. It'll complete my set of three ships with my Harpy and Eagle (Deschain Falcon, Gilead Pistol, and Deschain).

Perhaps... but that's not the reason for the name.

Used to name mine after the vehicles from an 80's cartoon, now I've switched to naming them after units from the greatest rts (Total Annihilation) e.g. Ferox = The Can. Not original, but I get nostalgic.
