What are you going to name your ships?

[IlDuce]

Got a few names lined up for ships. Props if you know where they're from.

No More Mr Nice Guy
Of Course I Still Love You
Little Rascal
So Much For Subtlety
Size Isn't Everything
Problem Child
Attitude Adjuster
Frank Exchange Of Views
Quietly Confident
Serious Callers Only
I Blame My Mother*
I Blame Your Mother*
Big Sexy Beast
Funny, It Worked Last Time
It'll Be Over By Christmas
You'll Thank Me Later
All Through With This Niceness And Negotiation Stuff
Resistance Is Character-Forming
Don't Try This At Home
Pure Big Mad Boat Man
You'll Clean That Up Before You Leave

*Always to the same type of ship, in the same fleet, next to eachother in the line.

Not exactly the most traditional names but I want them to have a bit of personality. Plus I think in the real world the enemy would be a bit more scared of HMS Kiss My Fluffy Pink Bunny than HMS Queen Elizabeth II.

[Sir Beane]

@ IlDuce

Most of those names would make excellent racehorses .

[A Very Super Market]

Name them after people who post in this thread!


I screwed it up for you, didn't I?

[IlDuce]

Never really thought of that. Never really been into the gee gees after seeing my grandad slowly waste my inheritence away.

My other plan was to name them after the robots on Robot Wars but having HMS Wheely Big Cheese just seems even more silly.

That Robot Wars plan is pure genius! Who wouldn't be terrified of a fleet with Sir Killalot or Matilda in it? I know I would .

[Fridgebadger]

What about the most famous of them all, The Sleeper Service?

edit: (though I see you've got it already, at least in nickname form...)

[IlDuce]

I thought Sleeper Service wasn't as good as Quietly Confident. Neither are great but you have to have Sleeper Service in somehow.

There's so many on the wikipedia page I don''t think I'll ever be short on names.

[Monk]

I'll definately have an H.M.S Beane, H.M.S Martok and H.M.S Nelson.

[ArtillerySmoke]

Can you really name your ships?

[Megas Methuselah]

I'll definately have an H.M.S Beane, H.M.S Martok and H.M.S Nelson.

What 'bout me?????!!!

[General SupaCrunk]

I don't know...

Can we name our admirals to?

If so then: Admiral SupaCrunk

[ArtillerySmoke]

Admiral McLovin

[hoom]

Ravished By The Sheer Implausibility Of That Last Statement

Possibly just a long series of Hand of God

I wonder about the names whether we get a default name based on number of units of that type raised/raised in that region?

[KozaK13]

The Nuppin

[GMaximus]

HMS 'Ni!' Enemies will roll over and die at the sight of it, provided there's no ship named 'It' on their side.

Obviously, my French fleet willl be stuffed with ships like 'Yourr Mother Was a Hamster' and 'Your Father Smelled of Elderberries' or 'I Fart in Your General Direction'. I do so much love being lame.

Some of these names are hilarious

Your ships made me laugh so I'm only going to shoot down your masts and spare you from drowning.

[Ramses II CP]

Ships should be named after women and loved accordingly.
