What did you name your ship and why?

<< < (7/64) > >>

Radigan:
The only ship name I've actually put any thought into is the Galleon - "Shes One of Ours Sir"

my devious plan is to confuse enemy captains as the second mate tells them who they're fighting.

Helmic:
An update:

Fat Bastard - What else is a Galleon?
Annoying Little POS - And what else is a Squid?
Knicknack Paddywagon - A Junker with way too many different guns on board.
Smiling Snack - The Snack That Smiles Back wouldn't fit.
Pewter Piper - Your typical asshole sniping Spire.
Poop Deck Pricker (rip march 2013) - The infamous Pyramidion, the prow's getting some "debris" from all that pricking.

Shinkurex:
Pyramidion: Shark Bait
Kinda looks like a shark's tooth if you look at it the right way...

Goldfish: Trial by Fire
Usually a blenderfish that had 2 flammers on the side... This has currently changed, so the name may change

Spire: Unwise Decision
Haven't practiced with this airship yet, so the name seemed fitting...

Junker: Scrap Heap
Junk means that it's not salvageable... while scrap can make something...

Squid: Locke
Placeholder name for when I practice and get better with it

Galleon: USS Diode
Who knows.... Lack of sleep may have played a factor in this name

RethBurn:
K, so I themed all of my ships from Hangar ships in the different Gundam Franchises:

From the recent Series, Unicorn.

Squid: Ra Cailum. I don't actually know -why- i called it that, since the Ra Cailum is a heavy-class hangar ship, but I liked the name

Junker: Garencieres. It's quite obvious when you look at the Neo Zeons and say: "It's a bunch of Junk..!..ers"

Moving on to a hated franchise, the AGE series. I actually liked it personally, for the ship-designs.

Spire - Diva: Now, the Diva is a mediocre ship to be honest, but it has like this "Pwncannon" on the front, sort of like a spire. Besides that it's horribly old and probably easily picked apart.

Goldfish - Baronoke: Ahh, A pirate ship, the Baronoke is my favorite ship, in all of the series. The crew and their captain is bad-ass, and I can't help but feel awesome with that name, especially since i usually use alot of stuff to bluff and juke with it, like a pirate!

Then there's a solo ship from the 00-Series.

Pyramidion - Ptolemaios. I know i know! The goldfish and pyramidion should probably have switched names, but I don't care! Who but the daring Rethburn would try to replicate the ideas of Ramming into a space-station with your capital ship and make it your base. All the while where you shoot out and get your fighters to take the station?!

And here ofcourse, a time-lost classic, it's the one that started it all, 30 years ago.

Galleon - White Base, commonly known as the original bad-ass, this ship housed the RX-78-2 Gundam, and it fought during the One Year War, it, along with the Gundam became the most feared thing on a battlefield. If you saw it, you were dead already.

ATeddyBear:
Squid: We Will Die

Pyrmid: We Will Lose

Junker: Lead Balloon

Spire: Pointy Thing (I'm going to rename this at some point)

Goldfish: Guppy

Galleon: We Won't Win

I like to set reasonable expectations for my crew members.
