Ship Names

Ship Names

I swear i saw that the ships had names, and was wandering if its going to be possible to rename individual ships? and if the ships do have names how many different name options are there? rather not end up with 20 ships all called "bob" (example)
thanks.

Hmm, lets see

WTFPWNINSTAKILL for my first cap ship
Can O' Whoop Ass for the following
It's On for my Imperial Flagship, because when It's On shows up, you know it's on!

After that, will probably be a bit more traditional,

Vengence
Imperator
Rightous Fury
Pinnacle
Chimera
Atriedes
Thermopylae
Marathon
Leonov
Tsien

and finally, Cthulhu

All begining with the prefix HIMS, if possble. (His Imperial Majesty's Ship)

yeah but what happens if you're entire fleet of ships turns into sperm whales and pots of petunias?  ;p

we may find out what the petunia was thinking just before it hit the ground. we would know a lot more about the universe if we did

it was thinking "oh no, not again" (may not be exact tought wording) and it was because Dent had just killed it again.

The Tyrant, not bad, but whenever someone takes it out, you have given them an excuse to say "Sic Semper Tyrannis" like when destroying a battleship in a naval combat game, and they can say "I sank your battleship" and don't get me started on when someone brings up cake...

Probably for me some of the halo covenant ship names they sound really cool and powerful...some one should definitely try to make a halo mod for this that would be awesome..
Incorruptible
Truth and Reconciliation
Shadow of Intent
Sublime Transcendence

Probably better for the Advent, since their crusade of retribution is quasi-religious.

I do like the covenant naming scheme, personally. But I think I'll stick with mythology and novels for my naming (Not directly ripping ship names from Sci-fi, but rather taking the names of other things from Fantasy and the like. Saying that, a Battleship called MacArthur might be called for)
