Generally my ships are named for mythological figures based on some insiration given to me by the ship shape or purpose. One exception is an Exequor (sp) that was given to me when I started playing by "that person" that mentored me. Amazingly the ship has survived to this day including a gank attempt and numerous loans to other new players to help them get started.

My ships all have pony names so when I kill a dude that guy knows he was killed by someone who names their ships after ponies.

Same reasoning for our alliance killboard design.

Heh Fenrirs, lowest EHP of freighters.

TA on wis: "when we have a feature that is its own functional ecosystem of gameplay then hooks into the greater ecosystem of EVE as a whole, and it provides good replayability."

Nor will "The Anticipation Of A New Lovers Arrival"...but of course Sleeper Service, Clear Air Turbulence, and my two favourites, But Who's Counting and Me I'm Counting, do fit.

I also use song titles, and most of my cloaky ships are called The Seldom Seen Kid (a song by Elbow)
