What slang terms, abbreviated or acronyms, do you use for ships in Eve?
Nomens for Navy Omens for example. Or the proverbial "Potato" for the dominix.
What are some of your favorites over the years? Have they changed?
Have you heard anything I've said?
You said it's all circling the drain, the whole universe. Right?
That's right.
Had to end sometime.

Intandofisa prides itself on its Zulu connections. Therefore, should I fly a Claw, that Claw is called "Izipho" which is....
...claw.

DD for Daredevil. Dram for Dramiel. SFI for Stabber Fleet Issue ScyFI for Scythe Fleet Issue Geddon for Armageddon Phoon for Typhoon Cane for Hurricane
That is all I can remember at this time.

Rino for any of my CNR's and my Golem. Because it has the BR SKIN as default, I named my Paladin the "Cannibal" and it's still rather fitting I think. Some had fictional military style nomenclatures and designators in the name depending on what they where, for instance my Golem has the nomen MAR/CS-5A in the name. "MAR" meant it is a Marauder class, "CS" for Caldari State as the origin faction, the "5" meant it is a Battleship, and the "A" stood for it being a Tech 2 ship.
I did go through a phase where I was naming ships after the names of mechs in Battletech lore; Frigs and Dessies where named after lights like the Firemoth or Jenner, cruisers and battlecruisers where named after mediums like the Hunchback and Nova, battleships after heavies and assaults like the Atlas and Timber Wolf. I still have a few ships lying around with mech names. I even got real particular about naming T1's after IS mechs, T2's and T3's after Omnimechs, and faction ships after Clan mechs.
Hell, I have a Raptor called simply "Raptor", not because it is one but because it reminds me of the one Lockheed Martin produced. Even my old Garmur was called the "JSF" just for ***** and giggles. Then, I went and changed it to the "Batmobile" at one point.
"Tomahawks?"
"----in' A, right?"
"Trouble is, those things cost like a million and a half each."
"----, you pay me half that and I'll hump in some c4 and blow the ---- out of it my own damn self."

Jack'doff (the flying antenna) - Jackdaw Gobbles (formerly the Ugly Turkey) - Moa. It used to look horrible.
Don't know about the others.

Aye. Magus, Stork, Pontifex and Deacon are the rest.
Shame about the Jack'doff, I love flying the ship. The mechanics with it and the Horten (Hecate) are what the T3Ds should be about. No tumors |
