Do any of you actually name your ships?

No, but I've gotteninto the habit of using similar ship designs and always using the same name for each design. However I use a large number of classes, so a fleet will have a Command ship, several Attack Ships, a few Planatary Assault Ships, a Troop Transport or 2, a couple of Carriers, a few Tanker Ships, several Point-Defense Ships, and a couple of Fast-Attack Ships... each class will have a diffrent name, so you're talking about 8 classes/names in my standard attack fleet. It would be too hard to name/remember all my ships, since I often build a lot of smaller ships... a standard attack fleet has 21, a defense fleet has 13, and a patrol fleet has 7... I easily hit upwards of 100 ships by mid-game!
