Funny/unusual ship names

[HarryWraith]

I've seen some odd ship names in my brief travels so far. Do you have any unusual names?

Mine are:
Scouty McScoutface - my dbx
Manic - erm, my miner ship (soon to be replaced)
Linford Christie - my speedy Orca passenger liner

Well played, sir! And now I have “Hall of the Mountain King” in glorious 8 bit sound going round my head

My Python is called “Lumberjack”, which is the only amusing name I’ve given any of them so far. The others are far too sensible, but I thought a Python had to be a little silly

Helped a squadmate name a new ship just yesterday, he liked the Undestroyable 2 suggestion

My Beluga, used for shipping passengers, is named Queasy Jet, after the manner the DC engages at the destinations

Peter Johnson, my Beluga Liner
Be Strong for Mother, my Cobra MkIV
Obscene Heap, my Asp X

My Cutter. I was going to call it (Male sexual organ) Extension but thought the game might have a problem with that. So I named it Mid Life Crisis.

Alas, Manic is no more. After a bounty void opal run just now I'm able to upgrade my Asp miner to a Python. However, in honour of you I shall name it "Mountain King".

When it first appeared in a Beta I tried out a Dolphin and named it the Gholden Dhildo .... (To test the nanny filter and 'cos it looked like one.)

I'd rather see a red one called "Marilu Henner".

My Python is called ‘Candiria’ after the superb New York band of the same name.

From Wikipedia:

Candiria are an American progressive metal band from Brooklyn, New York. They blend various styles of music including metal, hardcore, hip hop, jazz, and progressive rock. Candiria have often dubbed their sound "urban fusion."

"Candiria" is supposedly the plural form of candiru, a parasitic fish found in the Amazon river. However, original member Kenneth Schalk stated that the band made up their name while unaware of the fish. The alleged plural is incorrect anyway: the name of the fish comes from the now extinct Old Tupi language, from where it passed on to Portuguese and later to other languages; in Portuguese, the plural form is simply candirus.

I have a Keelback specially built for running very cold and using research limpets to get samples off Thargoid Interceptor.

I named it 'The Probulator'.

My friend Oude has one named so, leading to much confusion in Open. Try it out!

For Generation Y CMDRs (and beyond), I suggest to add this. Otherwise, they wouldn't know, possibly.

You’re right, a spoiler would have been in order - thanks for the addition!

Back when it was possible to name servers with some degree of interest and originality rather than having to stick to some boring corporate naming convention, I created a server called "Bwian", because it gave us "a good wun foh ouh munneh".
