My favorite one so far is Mercer Exemplar (my Punisher)...but I'm running out of stuff that sounds good... Glad to see you found something to work with though :D I need to get me a naming theme for my ships…right now I tend to look around my office and find words or names from stuff, edit them a bit, and throw them together.

I like to keep some random variety in my ship names, although I keep coming back to the same ones for my favorites. Always with a little story/meaning too, like my Stabber Ixwa (stabbing spear invented by Shaka Zulu) or the VootKroozah Vexors (the Voot Cruiser ship from the Invader Zim series by Jhonen Vasquez ...and WH40k Space Ork Kill Krooza I guess hehe). Like Wens sorta suggests, I also rely more on matching people in local with ship types than ship names, altho if the name rings a bell it's extra confirmation. haha, nice set of posts wens!

I do like <em>Ice Cream Truck</em>, that's brilliant. I work on the theory that if you see me in local and you see a Rifter on scan its not going to take long to put two and two together.

But for the most part I like to keep changing my ship names so I'm not predictable like so many players are with their fits and ship names. Does anyone else use "notes" to keep track of this too??
