What did you name your ship and why?

[Captain Smollett]

I think we should find a CA to petition for Muse to increase the character cap on ship names.

But who could we find to take up our cause?

[Wazulu]

I think some CA's would want that, but being one you get to see what has to be prioritised. That being said, it can't be that much of a difficult change, but then again,  I'm no tech bloke.

Spire:
The Faulty Tower

I just love John Cleese.

Hah! Now why didn't I think of that

Spire:

Fawlty Towers is amazing.

I called my Goldfish "Duck Surprise"

But what if I didnt like duck? Don't you serve anything other then duck?

I recall there was a time where you could make the ship names as long as you wished. Did some real funky things to the lobby UI if I remember right.
People came up with some amusing things, like covering up their actual ship's classes, rather "creative" lines and whatnot. Got old fast though.

There are some maniacs out there that name their ships after Cakes.

Not that I would know.

Pyra - Pryamidino, Acts like a tongue twister when you're used to the real name
Goldfish - Foldgish

[Swizy]

huh, only half of my message was recieved, here are the others:

Galleon - bowchickabowbow, random name
Junker - Get a load of my... well guess^^
Squid - Pip the... Omage to somebody
Spire - Obelisk... architecutral reference
Mobula - The Mob, cause that's what it is.

[Zenark]

I named my Spire, Red Velvet.... Totally not because I'm a Cake and I needed a name for the Spire tournament.... You're silly.

Here's a list to inSpire:

Now I'm hungry.

[James T. Kirk]

I hear those Cake people are recruiting.

My obviously-romantic newbie pilot boyfriend and I have now named ships after each other. 

My nickname means "bird" in Japanese, and his nickname is Kit, so I have a Pyramidion named "Fox-Bird."

But of course, he comes up with much more beautiful things in my honor. Including "HMS [realnamewithheld]'s Ladybone" and "HMS Pandabutt."




Also I named my Mobula "Fluffybutt." For obvious reasons. Not that I pilot to begin with.

completely superior first post coming through

[Admiral Telephosphor]

Squid: HMS Last Argument, a reference to "The Last Argument of Kings".

Junker: Circus Maximus
Spire: Eulogy For Socrates
Galleon: Weep For Nietschze
Mobula: Funeral For Plato

All named because they just sound cool.

[Captain Phil]

Well, all of my ship names are rather dull and humor lacking but here they are,

Eternity's End: Galleon; this was my first ship I ever flew back in the beta days and my flag ship. At first I was going to name her "Eternity" but I stuck the "End" at the end to make it a bit more unique incase someone else wanted to name their ship "Eternity."

Spelljammer: Squid; Spelljammer is a number of things in the DnD campaign setting "Spelljammer". It is the name for a massive and rare ship, and is the name for magical engines used to fly ships through space.

Twilight's Sorrow: Pyra; one of a few mlp references in my ship names. This one received "Twilight" due to the pyra spike.

Fluttershy's Ducklin: Goldfish; Originally named "E.A.F. Fluttershy (Equestrian Air Fleet)" but Squash was being a prick and was bugging me about having non-duck names. Might switch it back due to the lack of the "g" at the end bugging me, and Squash can deal with it.

Quack'n Discord: Junker; My original junker build used 5 different guns, so I named it Discord, same name change story above^.

Crystal Citadel: Spire; Another mlp reference, and it also fit the spire since it seemed to be made of crystal.

Lady L. Mckennitt: Mobula; Tribute to my favorite artist, Loreena Mckennitt.

[Piemanlives]

I renamed my Junker The Musical Manatee, because I have a tendency of getting muse-ical
