When I was a newbie with a Reaper, I named it "Don't Fear The Reaper"

My Venture is "InANot2DistantFuture" (kudos to those who get that reference)

I named my Bellicose "The Giant Ice Skate" due to its shape

All of my Thoraxes are named after Adult Film stars.



The Diggler and The Jeremy have claimed the innocence of more than a few ships on the Rens undock.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

I tend to name all my ships based on what I think they will achieve.

Consequently all my PvP ships are named "Explode in a fiery ball of twisted metal and self recrimination " - So far the names have been accurate.

That's my current favourite, but I change names regularly anyway. Not that tied to names.

I saw a ship once named "Target the other guy."

Always gave me a laugh that one.

I name all my ships after random Magic: The Gathering cards. Literally just go to the card database, hit random, name my ship after a word on the card, usually in the name. If I get a basic land, I hit random again.

This one time I ended up calling a ship "Diversion", since I brought up Master of Diversion. It exploded quickly. Somewhat fitting. Got a bomber named "Ambush", ended up selling it before I ever used it.

Sometimes get respectable names, for instance, Omniscience. Not actually an awful name for a spaceship. Then other times, I get things like Jandor's Saddlebags. There's... really no way to get a good name out of that.

My catalysts are name Powdermilk. Congrats if you can figure out why.

EDIT: Jandor's Sattlebags. Wow, its rare for me to find cards I haven't heard of.
