I solo PVP in assault frigates, but mostly Ishkurs, of which I always have three ready to go, named Skylark, Sundance and Starskean. Skylark is my favourite, because it used to be the only one I'd have ready to go. When I lost it, having to fit another one would give me time to consider the loss and get over the pang of annoyance at losing the ship. When I stopped feeling that annoyance, I started always having three ready to go. Skylark is also my favourite because that particular Ishkur has over 100, almost 150 kills to only 8 losses.

For the record, Starskean is not a play on Starscream. A skean is a type of knife, or dagger, used in Ireland and Scotland.

Rifter - Dust Devil

CODE is just a bunch of pirates; smart, organized pirates. It doesn't help to rage at them because that is exactly what they want. Dust yourself off and get back on your feet, you don't even have to talk to them.

Another name I use is the Uranus Prober, my covops ship, among other names with sexual innuendos

Hehe... I once had a probe fit with ship and cargo scanners as well as probes and called it "Up Urz"

I used to have my sleipnir named "DoomTrain" before they changed the skin.
At various times I've had a frigate with a 1200m3 cargo hold that I used to take my loot to the trade hubs and named it "Mini-Tote" while my bestower was "Lugbug" and my mammoth was named "Mr. Snuffleupagus"
Just recently sold my noctis which was my "Recycling Bin."
Most of my mission ships are synonyms or relative descriptors for their hull names like "Resolution" for my Paladin and "Affliction" for my Nightmare.
Had a pvp fit Armageddon that I put together for a war dec once and named it "Monkey Wrench."

My absolute favorite has to be the name I used for my drake which was "Its Justa FleshWound."

I've always liked the style of ship names from Ian Bank's the Culture series.

My Orca is called:

<<< Caution Wide Turns >>>


I just picture that written across the back of the ship.

Jint Hikaru - Miner / Salvager / Explorer / SpaceBum In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

Vexor - Comma, 'cos it is.

Raven - Huginn, one of Odin's birds.

Iteron Mk 5 - Lynott, the last might take a bit of working out. Iteron Mk 5 > long and skinny > thin lizzy > the late and much lamented Phil.

Megathron - Diplomatic incident.

Named after the blue on blue brawl the celebrate Vile Rat. She was better known as the Delve Mega and served the CFC for 287 days through 3 wars in every fleet from mealstroms to drake and tengu fleet to our first harpy fleets. She earned the reputation of being unwelpable after being the lone survivor and managing to make it back home sometimes over 40 jumps through low sec. She was lost in the opening weeks of the purging of test from delve, upsetting many. No Megathron has come close the her record and I still miss her to this day.

All my combat ships have some "Freedom" or "Anti-slavery" vibe to them for that true Minmatar/Rebel Alliance feel. Like: Emancipator etc.

All my industry style ships have either a artistic name (Renaissance etc) or a standard "Pride of. [insert system name here]"
