What did you name your ship and why?
N-Sunderland:
I gave my ships stupid Latin names (after the SMAC tag).
Goldfish: SMAC Segem Fies (You Will Become The Harvest). Terrible name for a ship.
Pyra: SMAC Aegyptiacus (Egyptian)
Galleon: SMAC Maneo in Caelo (I remain in the sky). New character limit broke this.
Junker: SMAC Asinus (Donkey). Yeah, that was back when Junkers were useless.
Squid: SMAC Spes Victoriae (Hope of victory)
Spire: I don't actually know.
I rarely fly anyways, so nobody gets to see my bad ship names.
BdrLineAzn:
This may sound nerdy or geeky to some but my ship names came from lego ships that i made when i was younger and it revolved around Star Wars. (i was really into the movies when i was younger thus creating spaceships out of legos, i was around 8 i believe.)
Goldfish: Starlight: Named it this as its one of the nicest looking ship out in the gameand it aptly fit its name. Also its lego predecessor was one of my finest creations.
Pyramidion: Comet: Since i come in guns blazin' why not name something that looks like a fireball.
Junker: Nebula: Since its one of the most versitile, just like a nebula being mostly gas, it can become anything.
Galleon: SuperNova: Almost like a typical galleon name since supernovas are huge and explosive.
Spire: WhiteDwarf: I usually run this ship far from battle sniping, isolated and alone, like a white dwarf is.(also the balloon gave me the idea for the name.
Squid: SolarFlare: Since the squids are fast and can support fire type weapons, guess you can see where i named it from.
Basically almost all names that comes from space :P

Mattilald Anguisad:
My ships mostly have fun names
goldfish: Nike - it is the name I allways put to my "Flagship" and is named after ancient greek alegory of Victory
junker: Flaming Bedrolls - this name comes from a d&d related story of someone who kept throwing flaming bedrolls at people - the junker's baloon looks like a huge bedroll and it looks very flamable
pyramidion: Unsung Hero (full name: Unsing Hero (now with 400% more spears!) ) - this ship had the default name for the longest time, and when friends from King's Gambit start calling my junker Unsing Hero I suddenly had a great name, but I didn't want to rename the Flaming Bedrolls
spire: Flying Snail - sort of reminds me of a snail - with the baloon being the shell and hull being the body.
galleon: Cheeseburgers (long name: Can I Have Cheeseburgers plx? ) - galleon is probably the cheesiest ship in the game
squid: Parvus Major - it was originaly called Drunken Fish, becouse it handles like it's drunken (due to its extremely high radial acceleration), but for sake of clarity (ie. to prevent missunderstandings); the current name comes form a very common European and central-Asian bird species: Great Tits
Queso:
I named my goldfish Dusk's Light because of best pony. I named my Spire the Ice Cream Cone for obvious reasons.
