How do you name your ships?

[freduk]

I really like that FLX! It's good that some come up with a bit more deeper names than the average MALEVOLENCE, BLADE, CRUSHER etc.

I always name my ships after well known (well...) black metal bands and always use roughly the same names. Like for instance a repair ship will always be named Nargaroth and a minesweeper will always be named Godless North.
For specialized ships I use another name, and will remember it, for I thrive to play only 1-2 games at a time.

Most disliked is the FR-PD-0012 namegiving by me. It's so unimaginative.

Furthermore I'd like to add that if an opponent names his ship LC minesweeper mk20 I would still consider it can be either a minesweeper or a light cruiser attack, the trick mentioned before only works with, well, stupid people I guess.
