Sick and tired of seeing ships called "John Doe's Iteron Mk. V"?
Tired of witnessing an endless parade of ships whose owners haven't taken the few seconds needed to grace them with a name?
Do you name your shuttles?
Then behold - the ship name pool - a tool for the easy use of anyone having trouble thinking up a name for their ship. Post anything here - names you've used, names you want to use, names you made up, names you got from a book, a film, a game, anywhere. They can even be real ship names you've seen in-game. Put them all here, that the unimaginative of EVE may benefit from your creative spirit.
Names like:
Day of Rage Tormentum Malorum Original Gankster lovely cup o' Tea Now You See Me (good for cov. ops...) Honk if you love Jin Mei Painstick Special Delivery Grey Area Little Rascal Gank-o-matic 5000 NOW YUO DYE!!!! ZZZZZOOOOOOMMMM!!!!! Tech 2 Bicycle Canticle of Pain Miyamato Musashi Litany of Fury Hymn of War ESS Solanum Beware of dog Pizza Express Why is the rum gone? Yamato Ship +1 I stop for hitchhikers
come on folks, add your own suggestions to the pile :D

It's easier to generate names if you have naming conventions. For example. If I was given a ship by a corp mate, it will have the corp ticker in the front, by an alliance mate, the alliance ticker. My Cormorants, for instance are all named 'Snow [Something]' Snow Queen, Snow Fall, Snow Flake, are all names I've used. I cannot create a convention for every ship I fly, so some of them borrow names from other classes. my Kestrels either use my mining ship names, or my Cormorant names.

A lot of my ship names tend to be in other languages. Currently my Typhoon is called Abflussrohr and my Tempest is called Fliegenpatsche which is German for drainpipe and flyswat. My Cyclone is called Chi'ing Fung, which apparently means 'gentle breeze'. My Stiletto is always called 'Combat Mosquito'. Currently I fly a Stabber which is called Descuernacabras. I leave it up to you to figure that one out, but it seemed funny at the time of naming.

I used to take names from Homestar Runner, like Strong Bad, Strong Sad, Trogdor etc, then I moved on to characters from Terry Pratchett's Discworld, naming my badger "The luggage", viciously fast ships Rincewind and so on.
Left all that behind though, these days I go for real names, giving gallente ships girls names and caldari ships boys names. Sometimes I take those names from movies if there's a character who reminds me of the role I have in mind for the ship, or I simply name them after RL friends . I remember that one of my friends got rather upset when I told her I named a ship after her, which subsequently blew up in a matter of days. I told her that, naturally, it was her fault.
So it's a boring naming convention, but at least it's better than "defiler's whatever". Dunno what names I would pick for amarr or minmatar, but it doesn't matter since I can't fly them anyway.

I name my ships under a standard convention of Corp Abbreviation followed by something associated with the ship design, style, or purpose.
So, assuming Republic Military School (RMS):
Salvage Destroyers - RMS Junker/Scrapheap/Junkyard, etc... Drake - RMS Flapjack Kestrel - RMS MoB (Missiles on Boosters) Rifter - RMS Magnet Hurricane - RMS Dum-dum-da-dum/Paddywhack Rupture - RMS Fang Typhoon - RMS Shipyard Dominix - RMS Fat Mama Imicus - RMS Prober Badger - RMS X (Replace X with a German phrase I found that, roughly translated, equals Tug-job) Bestower - RMS Bestowed Betrayer (shortened it to Bestowed for the in-game, but the full-title I wanted reflects it's full meaning as a Minmatar pilot) Retriever - RMS Lapdance (Strip Miners) Shuttles - Some variant of Taxi or Taxi associated term
My one and only reserved name, if I eventually fly a Titan: (Corp) Deliverance (with a full title adding "of God" or maybe "of His Wrath", etc...)

Ibis. Sure, it might be a Caracel, but it's still an Ibis at heart.
My Blackbird, though, is named "Raspberry Jam."
