Well I know one author who hasn't heeded your advice. In his novel a Task Force from 2021 is sent back though time and the flagship is the U.S.S Hilary Clinton (the best President ever to lead in the war on terror)

This thread brings back a few memories. Back when I PBEM'ed Stars! I had a list of names I used. My memory is failing, but a some of them were:

Angry Sphincter Spluttering
Mint on Liver a la Blood
Ulcerous Foot (minelayer)
Festering Stool
Severed Finger Signalling
Happy Tumor Bursting
Gleeful Goiter Gurgling Grandly
Dark Dreams (cloaked spy/minelayer)
