Default Re: How do you name your ships?

I usually don't name each ship individually; I just use the class name with the number after it because there's just too many ships to come up with unique names.

Some space yard ships I rename so that they come up in an organized order in the construction list. The ships that I want on the very top of the list I rename with a * at the beginning of the name.

As for ship class names, depending on what I feel like, I use one of the standard name lists, or I might use:

1. Pokemon names: Gengar, Raichu, Lapras, Eevee, Mew, Lugia, Entei, Moltres, Togepi, Starmie, etc
2. Location names from RPG's: Wutai, Nibelheim, Ryuon, Roron, Kueri, Midgar, Landen, Kadary, Kohlingen, Reza, Kuran, etc
3. Zoanoid names from Guyver: Ramotith, Gregole, Thancrus, Gaster, Derzerb, Panadyne, Aptom, Vamore, etc
4. Angel and computer names from Evangelion: Sachiel, Shamshel, Ramiel, Iruel, Melchior, Balsathar, Sahaqiel, etc
