I just started a week ago and have been in Solo the whole time, only named one so far: (Why I asked is for ideas)
Sidewinder number: TKE 01
Viper Mark III number: TKE 02
Type 7 Transport number:TKE 03, Name: Orion
*You have a Type 7, I think it is under rated myself- I make a lot of cr's with it
Trouser Conda, cos!
“Sisyphean, isn’t it?” - Anaconda - something a bit Banksian to reference The Grind
“Instructions not inc.” - Cobra III - Mr. Iain again, the amount of times I’ve had to find info from Not The Game.
“Nighthorse” - Krait II - my ride that may be used for shady operations.
Nameless - SRV - though I most often call it, “not a [redacted] 180 spin AGAIN”

Its a really good guide, it works for nearly every ship! Surviving in open is easier than everyone thinks.Agreed - she's a tough old bird. If you ever decide to take one out in open, take a look at this first:
This is basically the manual on how to trade in open with a T7

The Picidae - from my avatar. The Cobra MKIII I started the game with, back in 1984
Issaries - a T10 for trading, using the name of the god of trade from Gloranthan mythos
Molurus - python - is a type of python.
Ariadne - Asp - Greek Goddess of mazes and labyrinths, seemed to fit exploring a bit.

Some I've named after the legend of Gef the talking mongoose:
Imperial cutter - cashens gap
Python - the dalby spook (ID LL924)
Asp explorer - the talking mongoose (ID: LL918)
Cobra mk III - gef
Krait mk II - the haunted weasel
The others have names fitting their purpose:
Anaconda : give quiche a chance (ID:LL928) - this is my explorer & alien friendly hippy truck
Adder: starbug (it's green & looks like starbug a bit)
Cobra MK IV: content gatekeeper.
The ID's are a reference to my lego classic space collection.
