I have been thinking up names for new ships, systems, planets and whatever. I'm probably just dreaming, but I want to do my own plug in. Right now I am calling it 'Vertigo'
Some names I am working with right now:
Hades, Spectre, Phantom, Fire Bat, Hydra, Drago, Pheonix, Scimitar, Xanthos, Sathar, (stole that one from an old RPG, Star Frontiers) and of course Tiamat.

"Once upon a time I went to the park and there was the Hobo feeding the ducks and he was like "Hobo Hobo" and he threw the popcorn to the ducks and the ducks went to eat it but the hobo got hungry and went "Hobo Hobo" and ate the popcorn and the ducks got mad and grew horns and staring stabbing the Hobo to death and dragged him into the lake and he was like "hobo hobo" and no one ever saw him again."
For all of my ships it was: Shotgunholeinthehull

Just-Kidding- Its a well known AIM term.
O, and I forgot one-
I know that sounds like a pretty cool name but unfortunatly, thats not it. I literally named the ship "..."- EV had a bug and didn't display the string. I just saw the box. I didn't know what to put, so hey, you can't blame me. Moral of the Story- Don't mess around in ResEdit, kids!

Once I thought up of a lot of wierd names, but my favorite one was "Flying Purple Dolphin Crap". But alas, it didn't fit in the name box :frown:

Tether a **** .
Yes, I'm serious, and no, it's not swearing (well...not really). Derived from Welsh, simply means "thirteen."
