Title: Favourite Ship Names
Post by: N-Sunderland on March 14, 2013, 10:05:55 pm
We already have a thread for our own ship names, but what about other people's ships whose names you really liked? For me:

Götterdämmerung. Zwaene's Galleon has just such an intimidating sounding name.

I also love Zill's ship names. Out of those, I think However We Died and Then It Caught Fire both have a good ring to them.

I also like Ifrit, was telling my gunner today to "Shoot the Ifrit!" and I got the verbal version of a blank stare.  "The Gold fish thats shooting bolts of fire at us!"

I also saw a random one a few days ago called "Bear Calvary".  Loved it.

...only ship names I can think of are the ones that I gun after because they're a big threat...

that being...pretty much all of Zil's ships...
the Teabag
...
and the rest I just shout out ship types because I'm mostly commanding a crew of Newbies, or go by the player's name...

Frankly they're all my favourite for small reasons...I'm just weird

I personally after sleepless hours invented ship names:
Tough Love for Galleon
ADHD for Squid
Obssesive Compulsive for Pyrmidion
Trust Issues for Spire
Emottionally Dependant for Goldfish

I get a good chuckle when ever some one names one of their ships after the ship type of another ship. Like the Goldfish named "Squid". I get the mental image of a captain too poor to afford the ship he wants so he dresses it up as a ship it is not. Like a Honda Civic with Porcea badges and a spoiler.

No Junker? Well, Pathological Collecting seems obvious.

I don't care about anything else but Lord Dick Tim's Cloud whale. That white demon already took my best eye in a game of poker, I'm not going to stop untill I get it back!

Oh, forgot that one. Delayed Reaction is for Junker. I am not skilled enough to fly Junker (I assume that after lousy results I have with it) so... It doesn't see skies very often.

That whale pic is so majestic it became my new background.

Back to ships, I like another I saw, kotatsu, pretty sure it means table in Japanese.

I was a bigger fan of Takoyaki.  Flying with him makes me hungry ...
