I like Force Majeure. Which ship is that? I name my ships after American Indian tribes like the Cheyenne or Apache

Do you sexually identify as a military helicopter? 
Get your hands of my Chinook, if you touch it again i’ll get my Apache to give your Sikorsky a damn good thrashing.

Can your Apache deal with my Commanche though? 
You are clearly all doomed if someone brings Airwolf though…

Nice. 
I was wondering what caused this thread to be locked.
Took a few to figure out that it wasn’t.

Iv’e got Merlin for that and it’s magic.
Yeah, I name them depending on the clone I’m supposed to be in when flying it, crystals, slaves, asklepians etc.

Naw, I just let the macro pick them, the note pad document it pools from is 45mb so it must be a dictionary and more.
Yes!!
I only name cloaky ships and force recons, everything else I generally try to make as unnoticeable as possible on d scan. I have a Curse named “Unspoken” I think that’s my most clever ship name.

I normally don’t name my ships anything special (just the ship name). The only special thing I do is add tags to the ship if they require special fitting implants (genos, +CPU or +PG implants).
I use a format such as ABC-D for pretty much all my ship names.
The purpose is to make the name easy enough that I can tell what it means at a glance, but obscure enough that anyone picking me up on D-Scan shouldn’t be able to decipher it.
Given that explaining the codes would give away what they mean, it would defeat the goal of security-through-obscurity if I were to give actual examples.

Aside of my earlier post about wh ship naming I also share these:
CEO alt:
- Most ships: 0.1% corpTAX
- Haulers: Corporate Transport
Trade alt:
- All ships: Other people’s ISK
For my main and some cases for alts I simply choose a name that fits the ship or the character or is somehow relevant.
For the rest of alts’ ships I simply use the ship name or a part of it (like simply “Shuttle” for all types of shuttles instead of the full name with the racial extension).
lets see here,
my Imicus is called Explory II (the first one died)
my iteron V is called Trucky
my venture is called Miney
i think you get the idea

I’m from Australia so for a while I was naming all my ships after Australian cities. The Melbourne, The Darwin, etc. My fighting ships I name after Australian animals, so I have the “Razorback” and the “Feral Cat”. Lol. My mining ships are all named “Fortescue Mining” as it’s a major mining company in Western Australia.
