    Recently I was thinking about specific starship names, like

    Ebon Hawk
    Tantive IV
    Millenium Falcon
    Outrider
    Mynock
    Khetanna
    Rogue Shadow
    Slave I
    Invisible Hand
    Radiant VII
    Soulless One     (the edgiest name ever)
    Dusty Duck
    Ghost
    Moldy Crow

    That got me thinking...what would you name your ship if you were a pilot?

    For me, maybe The Jaded Owl or The Dark Canary or The Funky Penguin, although I don't want to sound too pretentious. ;)

    Man, I gotta remember back to my old Star Wars Forum RP days...

    Fond Farewell is probably my favorite ship name. It just has that ring to it.

    Did you know Queen Amidala's cruiser in TPM was called The Mary Celeste ?
    http://ldstarwars.iwarp.com/swupdate/1ships.htm

    "THE MARIE CELESTE

    Sabé, the Queen’s handmaiden, was originally not the only decoy in Episode I. The Queen’s ship, according to the Episode I Insider’s Guide CD-ROM, was also used as a decoy. Check out this passage from the CD-ROM:

    In the revised third draft, the Queen’s starship actually lands directly in one of the Royal Palace’s courtyards. It is surrounded by battle droids and a tank. However, when droids led by a droid commando named 044 search the starship, they find nothing. Evidently, the Queen and her entourage abandoned the starship near Otoh Gunga, then programmed the autopilot to fly to the Royal Palace. Later, Nute reveals that the Trade Federation forces have located the “life pods” used by the Queen and her followers.

    This is interesting stuff. Perhaps some of you might remember an Internet rumor from long before the film was released which I’ll dub the “Marie Celeste” rumor. According to sources on various fan websites, the Queen’s Nubian chrome ship was originally to be called the Marie Celeste. Someone then researched the name and found out that the Marie Celeste (AKA Mary Celeste) was actually an old sailing vessel whose crew had mysteriously disappeared in 1872 without a trace, leaving no indication as to why they left the ship.    "

    Way back in early SWG I had a ship called the Corusca. I still think it's a good name.

    The Imperishable is also a fitting name for a ship of mine.

    What's a falcon anyway? Is that a spirit animal that shows up in different forms on zillions of worlds?

    I want a boat... I don't think I'd name it after an animal though I'd wanna name the droid consciau in the interface, you know?
