Thunderchild Class: USS Spirit of Fire
I'm a huge HALO fan and read many of the comic/novels, I like names that are made up of three words, though I dare not use the Pillar of Autumn
Sao Paulo Refit: USS Razor
I think when I get to the Sovereign class, USS Queen Elizabeth ? Majestic ship after all
First Ship was the USS Halifax, and I just let the random pick it. Current Ship is the USS Arcadia, named after the Dark Horse Comics character Ghost's city she operates in.
Here are the names of my ships and their origins behind them.
Nova: USS Eclipse. It made sense because it seems like Nova-class ships are named for some kind of astronomical phenomena (ex. Nova) or something to do with the moon (ex. Equinox).
Intrepid: USS Eclipse-A. Obviously named after my Nova which I had a lot of fun in early on.
Odyssey: USS Aquarius. Named for the lunar module of Apollo 13 (for those that don't know Apollo 13's command module was named Odyssey).
Luna: USS Triton. Named for Neptune's moon (in keeping with Luna-class ships being named for the moons of our solar system).
Prometheus: USS Epimethius. Named for the brother of Prometheus in Greek mythology.
Defiant: USS Avenger. I always liked that ship from Armada I.
