How do you name your ships?

I've used all the methods you've mentioned. Thing is, I sometimes lose track anyway. With the pictures the same. the names really don't add much. Especially after multiple retrofits -- you really should rename with each retrofit, but I forget.

Not quite true:

I usualy call my ships : ' Blade Class-I Destroyer 0001 '
After construction I delete the 'class-I Destroyer' part in the name.

And then you will see this after clicking the ship :

Blade 0001
Blade Class-I Destroyer

so the only thing that will change in the name after retrofitting is the -I in -II or -III etc...
