Random Ship Name Generator/Funny Names

Post by Huntress »

I was browsing around for some good ship names and found two good generators. Some of the names are good, some not so good, and some are downright hilarious. Share the crazy ones you found, and your comments. He're the links.

The Fortified Claymore - I thought the whole point was to blow something up, or am I wrong?
The Barbarian's Love - Yeah, I named my ship after a romance book. So what?
The Murderous Asteroid - It could be hiding anywhere...
The Lustful Executioner - Ummm... isn't there someone else who can kill me?

Heh cool links, thanks. I will be changing ships in near future and exhange my Ophidian with a Yasen-N if all goes well, so this is a good help.

One I got and I smiled about were: Fish's Pride, Impostor's Weed and the Configurable Glove. I almost fell off the chair laughing when Angela's Miracle came (probl. only funny when being a German).

Angela's Miracle, eh? <grimaces> No comment!
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills

*g* I considered it for a split second as the new shipname... but decided against it in an instant. ;-)

Seriously... I'm going for a russian/eastern sounding name for the yasen class ship... The ship I tested the oxp with was called "Asimov" but for my playing ship I haven't made up a good one yet... Something like "Buran II", "Sakharin's Nebula", or just "Sakharov" or something.

I enjoy creating my own shipnames for fiction, and for my own ship (although I've used a couple of album titles in the past for that).
