What are your ships called?

Mine are:

ISS Gilded Cage: My Imperial Cutter - built on the traditions of the Empire (i.e., helping the impoverished maintain their honor with their donated labor)
The Void Strider: my Anaconda, stripped down for pure jump range.
The Pugnacious: my FdL, built for high DPS with utter disregard for everything else.
The Morrow Hawk: my AspX, named for Morrowpeak in Aditi, my home. Built for swift mission running and making all those Kessel Runs.
Sol's Lament: my Federal Corvette, extracted from Federals through rank bribery on my part. It goes to show how corrupt and valueless corporatist governments are.


Ships to come:
The Expedient: an Imperial Courier, built for racing.
Synteini Sunrise: a Saud Kruger pleasure barge.
The Mansa Musa: my Panther Clipper, Soon™.

Asp explorer = Digital 'vi.ag.ra'...the 'v' word hits the chat filter so have to break it up, mods dont ban me Im not using it in a sexual context.

Keelback = Same difference.

Thats my little fleet of two...all I have in the game and all I need ^
 
Sidewinder - unnamed as it is disposable
Eagle - Eagle-TAV (it has a ship kit that has given it canard wings and therefore looks more suitable for atmospheric flight - hence, Trans Atmospheric Vehicle)
Cobra Mk3 - Bacchus (because it has an Onionhead paint job)
Viper Mk4 - Kali (Hindi Goddess - from Wikipedia: Kali's earliest appearance is that of a destroyer principally of evil forces - ideal name for a bounty hunting ship)
Diamondback Explorer - Gudridur (from Gudrid Thorbjarnardóttir - an Icelandic explorer from 980AD)
T6 - Mikula (from Russian folklore, seemed a good name for a trading vessel)
Asp Explorer - Gudridur II (so good I had to name her twice)
T7 - Nostromo but it has a bright red paint job now, so I'm leaning towards a Red Dwarf reference

Anaconda - Pancake (IV)
Python (General PvE) - Gunstar Hero (III)
Python (Exploration) - Thunder Force (I)

Aside from my Anaconda, which got named due to several unfortunate landing accidents, all my other ships are named after old Sega Mega Drive games. :p

Cobra MKIII, 'Sun Dancer'. Has been the name of my Cobra ever since the Spectrum 48k
Viper MKIII, 'Mors Locus' ('Death's a Joke'). Part of the quote/motto 'Vita Ludos, Mors Locus' - Life's a game and Death's a joke.
Eagle MKII, 'ÆTIUS'. Named after Flavius Aetius, the Roman General and Consul. The name probably derived from Greek αετος, meaning "eagle".
