Usally.... i dont name my ships. Unless i plan to use them in lowsec, or battle... If i do name them, i usally stick with names from X2: The Treat, the classes (you know... argon disco(light scout), argon buster(light fighter), argon nova(heavy fighter)...) But then again... not always. Ive got a little frig called 'LITTLE ANNOYING FRIG' that ive been using of late, along with DESSY OF DOOM... and some others i cant remeber. Then ive got my arbi us in empier somewhere, named Lance Fighter's Arbitrator, simply becouse i use it for missions... and reallly dont care if someone scans/ probes me in empire.

Hmmm... ship names. Well, in no real order: Executioner called Cutty Sark (was used for fast low-volume cargos). Ares called Bullet (used to fit 2 MWD; g*d was it fast!). Tristan called Hot Needle of Inquiry (cookie if you get the reference. )
Thorax called Dauntless; Caracal called Monitor; Dominix called Ark Royal; Megathron called Vanguard; Raven called Ragnarok.
My favourite two though; I have an alt (female toon - it matters! ) with an Iteron V called Rampant Rabbit, and my looting sigil is called Millennium Pigeon.
There are more, but I can't remember them - at work atm. ---------------------------------------------- "Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent." ---------------------------------------------- |

All my sips are usually repackaged.
My Badger MKII is named "Nostromo" from the first Alien movie. My Scorpion is named "Sulaco" from the second Alien movie.
Those time I take out my Buzzard, I usually name it "Silent Hunter".
I like the Alien movies, guess it sort of shows.  ------------------------------------------------ If there is doubt, there is no doubt. |

Ship Names
I have had two named ships so far.
The first was given to me in ASCN space and was a Merlin called:
HMS Rectum Ripper II
Unfortunately, as it was a gift, I did not want to change the name, and had to fly around in it, causing the locals to wonder if I was one who "bats for the other team".....
The second ship was an Ibis, which I named by myself, before joining a hunting party to brutally attack a woman called Jessica outside the Mercenary Coalition HQ. I thought about possible names for a while and eventually decided to name it:
MercIbis The Brutal
It is interesting to read of how others choose names for their valiant vessels.

Whatever comes to mind. My tournament Heretic was first named Stimpack 2000, then I changed the name to Deathtrap. My first Brutix was called Jay Leno.
I used to try to come up with good names, but nowadays I just name after function. You know, Brood/Hivemind for drone carriers, Face*****for blaster ships, etc. ----

Sort of like the guy that named his alt character "Gurista Arrogator" and circled the jita gate, while his main collected the newbie loot? ----
