Real Ship Names
Sammy B. T.:
It may be worth mentioning that Junker is probably not derived from junk as in trash but Junk as in the Chinese style boat .

Dirty-Lee:
Well in our clan we pronounce Junker with German accent, as the German airplanes during World War 2. That way the ship sounds cooler and more frightening.
Anchorshag:
I imagine, given the game's setting, that most ships of the same design wouldn't even be similar. Given the lack, or surplus, of parts and other factors of post-apocalyptic life.
Two squids, for example, could vary wildly in construction, material quality, etc. The shipwrights would probably improve on these ships where possible and make cut backs when needed.

i would agree with that totally, but what im interested in, for example, is what the squid would have been called when it first graced the skies of Chaladon. before it was a common sight throughout the world.
