I like to keep mine all in the same theme.
My ships are all named after Conceptual Fish from the book The Raw Shark Texts.

Pyramidion: Ludovician
Member of the Cognicharius family, a species of predatory, purely conceptual fish that flow in the rivers of human knowledge. They are solitary, territorial and see only people, especially the ones they are hunting. It eats memories and is the biggest and most aggressive of the conceptual animals—rogue males sometimes focus on one food source. They are impossible to keep alive in captivity once they become adults and evolve totally naturally. They can grow as long as thirty notional lumens from snout to tail. First catalogued in 1839 by USC Capt. John Lewis. Myths: ancient Native Americans believed that these great dream fishes consumed all of the dreams, memories, events and identities of the people would be consumed and stored within the Ludovician. -- from
