Dannek Llama F5 and Associates	Posted - 2006.09.23 04:59:00 - [1] I've been using Ted Stephens catch phrases so far: Merlin - Series of Tubes Badger II - A Big Truck Caracal - Network Neutrality I plan on getting a really freaking huge ship one day and calling it "An Internet" -------------------------------------------------------- Working towards my own personal Dreadnought, one ISK at a time.
Nerf Caldari	Posted - 2006.09.23 05:01:00 - [2] You just made me lol. However, I name all my ships so as not to screw with the people scanning during corp PVP ops. TITAN WHAT THE ** PWN MOBILE! oh, and TITAN WHAT THE ** MINE MOBILE! Signature removed as the image is unsuitable. If you have any questions, please mail us on [email protected] and include a link to the image in question. -Ivan K
Myoujou Caldari	Posted - 2006.09.23 05:35:00 - [3] Personally I use a mix of latin, japanese and movie titles I like. When I can't think of a name I used Cinderella Man. For my covetor I called it avarus which means, yknow, greed, in latin. My badger? Muujina, the japanese name of a type of japanese badger. Stuff like that. Nice to see a non whining thread.

Stuff like that. Nice to see a non whining thread. ffs, CCP, it's about time you listened to your players and nerf ship names. It's bad enough that these cheaters are using logon tactics to gank gimped Amarr players by fitting imba EANMs and spamming ECM or crashing nodes with insta bookmarks, now they get to a free ticket to exploit with foreign languages that nobody knows how to read. way to backstab your loyal user base, CCP. No, you can't have my stuff. Oh, and something about the forums or a moderated post. ... Wait, what was it we were talking about? Oh yes, I should probably answer the OP instead of just being a smartass. I name my ships with words beginning with "V". They're all different, so after a certain number of ships it gets pretty hard to stay creative. I'm quite fond of Vivisectionist, my Thrasher.
Azerrad InExile	Posted - 2006.09.23 05:53:00 - [5] I use girls names that were featured in songs: Gloria (G-L-O-R-I-A) Jenny (Jenny Jenny who can I turn to) Sheena (Sheena is a punk rocker) Allison (My aim is true) Alice (You can get anything you want..., excepting Alice) Eileen (Go toora loora toora loo rye aye) Mary Lou (She's the kind of woman make a fool out of you) etc...
Sakura Nihil Tharsis Security	Posted - 2006.09.23 05:56:00 - [6] Mars regions - best ones I've gotten so far are Tharsis, Arcadia, Elysium, Olympus, Marinerus(sp?), Thracia, and Argyre. Its nice to not have to think of names tbh . Tharsis needs some !
Benglada Finite Horizon	Posted - 2006.09.23 06:01:00 - [7] Songs im listening to when i make my first kill in the ship. --------------------------- Originally by: Arkanor 0.0 is the Final Frontier. Bring money and friends.
Micia Minmatar N.A.S.A. Cobra Alliance	Posted - 2006.09.23 06:01:00 - [8] Most frigates get named after early Pink Floyd references. Everthing else typically has a moose or caribou in the name. Never really thought about why. Perhaps that's for the best. _______ Originally by: Devian 666 I use my mining disruptor, mining nos, mining hvy launchers and mining valks/acolytes on them.
Par'Gellen Low Grade Ore	Posted - 2006.09.23 06:04:00 - [9] I name mine after types of cheese. --- Starmaps - An Insta Solution
Viktor Tessela Ascendant Frontier	Posted - 2006.09.23 06:25:00 - [10] Usually after Adult Swim characters or shows. Big O stuff - Battleships tend to get the Big names (Big O, Big Duo, Big Fau). Smaller ships, usually after characters (Rosewater, Schwarzwald, etc.) Whenever I put together a ganking omen, I name it Frylock. Just seems appropriate.
Richard Masterson Occassus Republica Process of Elimination	Posted - 2006.09.23 06:25:00 - [11] Edited by: Richard Masterson on 23/09/2006 06:25:49 Anything with the word "**" in it. I.E. master 5000, Hauler, Piece of , , etc. . . Edit "**" is filtered? WTF?
Nev Clavain Wise Guys	Posted - 2006.09.23 06:33:00 - [12] I steal alot of names from Iain M Banks novels, cos he knows how to name a spaceship, sometimes particular ships get detsroyed and their new incarnation has a name to reflect its new purpose, and sometime I just google rude words in icelandic, just so people struggle to read it out to their corpmates when attacking me. Othe than that few ships have names which have personal meaning. If you cant tell already I have alot of ships and not much money lol ________________________________________________ A Journey....
Nicocat Caldari	Posted - 2006.09.23 06:33:00 - [13] I'm unoriginal in naming my ships after emotions and states of mind. I've run through most of the gamut of negative affects in Cyclones alone ;) ---------------------------- Remember, killing a Goon isn't murder. They don't have souls.
Kerc Kasha Caldari Wings of Redemption 9th Fleet	Posted - 2006.09.23 06:35:00 - [14] Edited by: Kerc Kasha on 23/09/2006 06:34:44 Mongolian tribes

Lardarz B'stard Amarr Out Of Exile Interstellar Alcohol Conglomerate	Posted - 2006.09.23 06:37:00 - [16] Edited by: Lardarz B''stard on 23/09/2006 06:38:57 I put little bits of my name in them. If my name doesn't fit into a ship then I pretty much won't fly it. EG: Lardageddon Apocalard Zealard Absolardarz Calardi Navy Raven Malardiction Failing that, I use bits of NPCs So you get: True Sanshas Beast Lard Join Out Of Exile Today
Vaslav Tchitcherine Jericho Fraction	Posted - 2006.09.23 06:37:00 - [17] I generally try to pattern them after Culture ship names. For example, Happy To See You (Thorax), Got Your Nose (Brutix), Sorry Can't Hear You (Celestis), etc. Sometimes I go for anagrams (Tintars, Suluam). I also have a Megathron named Ulysses, but that's just because I got lazy. My Domi is Feersum Endjinn. v. jf
Majutsu S.Y.N.D	Posted - 2006.09.23 06:49:00 - [18] I name my ships after ships! WWII era Destroyers, Cruisers, Carriers and Battleships of the Royal Navy. In my hangar at the moment are Ark Royal Illustrious Ajax

Akkarin Pagan Minmatar Raddick Explorations Myriad Alliance	Posted - 2006.09.23 07:29:00 - [22] I have no particular place I get my ship names from, but I like to be creative, or I just rip them from things I like or reflect the nature of the ship itself (or if I'm feeling really lasy, It's called "Akkarin Pagan's [enter ship type here]" Akkarin Linkage <3 - Immy

Yubyub Minmatar	Posted - 2006.09.23 09:27:00 - [26] Ive nabbed my names from the battletech universe clans: Stone Rhino Ghost Bear Jade Falcon Smoke Jaguar At some point i'll probably swap them over to individual mech names that share characteristics with the ships purpose.
Brutor Shaun Minmatar Freelancers UK Alliance	Posted - 2006.09.23 09:43:00 - [27] i used to have a Retriever called 'Asteroid (Veldspar)' Apart from that, I tend to name them by their purpose in life. 'BM setter', 'Loot Collector', etc. keeps life simple in my hanger.
