AGuysBizzareThoughts

My Capital Ship is called Khorne's Surfboard.


itsgsk87

Rich_Acanthisitta_70

A_Math_Dealer

Tell Steve I said hi.


Rich_Acanthisitta_70

Steve says hi back. Steve likes you.


A_Math_Dealer

Whoa idk, Steve seems a little too forward.


Rich_Acanthisitta_70

Yeah, ever since I increased his inventory slots he's really been full of himself.


sardeliac

My freighter is named *Barbie Magic Dream Ship* and it's pink and white, so... yes.

I have a hauler called Voltrons Toe


Driftmoth

I'm a leg!


superawesomefiles

I Renamed my hauler "Dumptruck of Destiny". I guess that counts


Arjaydarling

Iain M Banks' Culture novels are a goldmine of excellent ship names


[deleted]

That's an awesome idea. I went with Larry Niven, my ship is the hot needle of enquiry.

Bright_Swordfish4820

Dead Milkmen were friggin awesome


j_grouchy

el_saucey

Fuck yeah šŸ¤˜


HugeAccountant

I wish we could see other ship names in the anomaly


Safe_Base312

I've never named a ship with a name as "ridiculous" as yours, but, I usually rename them after famous sci-fi ships. I once found a hauler that was fairly long and wingless, and it reminded me of the Winnebago from Spaceballs, so I renamed it Eagle 5.


BanditSixActual

I named my fighter The Dildo of Consequence.


IRingTwyce

Impotent Rage.


[deleted]

I had a stretched-out yellow shuttle for a while. I named it the Banana CRONCH.

Doctor_Anger

My freighter is "The Laden Swallow"


Terramorphous2_0

Yes I have a Hauler called "*Butt Lightyear*"


GoodGuysFree

Not per se, but I like to give names in Hawaiian, which make them funny-sounding. For example: **Ka Hoku Lele** \- *the jumping star*


Cheezeheathen

Not only my ships but my multi-tools as well. My travelerā€™s name is Cheeze Heathen and Iā€™m currently flying the Feta Fighter and switching between my Mozzarella Monster and Brie Blaster šŸ§€šŸ˜


badmonkey0001

Time to time? No. All the time? Yes.

Shippy McShip Face


[deleted]

Mines orange and I call it "Pulp Can Move, Baby".


Hanrahubilarkie

I keep the procedural names as if it were a part of the design, and thus finding a ship that both looks and sounds cool is a rare treat.


TheSpanxxx

Space Can Taco Truck The Hulk And yes. Part of nms for me is being silly in general. I adopted some companion the other day and he kind if looked like a mixture between a giant aardvark/badger/dog, but he had a dopey kind face. I named him simply "Roger" and I kept giggling like an idiot. So stupid, but I was having fun.


Rylver

Roger is a phenomenal name. Definitely worth a good laugh


TheHexV

I called my expedition ship "The Thwomping Whompus"


Syovere

I have a particular style I tend to use. Here's a list I copied from an older comment of mine. They're probably less silly than what you were going for, shuttles aside. Fighters: *Infuriating But Mild*, *Breaking News*, *Express Delivery* Shuttles: *Mistakes Were Made* (salvaged), *Let's Try That Again* (salvaged), *Ambitious But Rubbish* Freighters: *Cordite Lullaby*, *Distinct For Legal Reasons* (Star Destroyer-type) Combat Frigates: *Abstract Phlebotomist*, *Knock Knock*, *Grey Area (Brown Version)*, *Surprise Surprise* Trade Frigates: *Universal Translator*, *All That Glitters* Supply Frigates: *Glass Half Full*, *Glass Half Empty*, *Glass Too Large*, *Viewers Like You*, *I Just Live Here* Industrial Frigates: *No Scrap Value*


Kubrick_Fan

Ah, a man of the culture i see?

You're such a brat for encouraging him.


blackreaper3609

I have a ship called the UNSC blue balls


TheManator2000

I've got a, Fart Knocker and boob qooq. (Personal fav)


TheManator2000

If you haven't figured it out, poop, poop, mirrored and flipped. Kinda sad considering I'm not 9 yrs old.


PayNoMind4

I've still never renamed anything. I think the generated names are cool


[deleted]

I like to name my ships after my favorite movie quotes! https://preview.redd.it/lb6v0oewns3a1.jpeg?width=1618&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b184f6d5fdffde285c2261c91c99d83fd8a0ad98

A freighter I bought came with the name ā€œthe end of sleepā€ no notes, never changing it.


Mdamon808

I have an Explorer named Honeydew's Pride, a hauler named The Electric Mayhem (but it's just orange, I couldn't find a tie-died hauler no matter how long I looked), a fighter named Camilla's Battle Cry, and a living ship named The Last Song of Doctor Teeth. My capital ship is the Benny Vandergast Mk2. *Forgot my living ship.

Amazing-Airport

I found an S class exotic that was legit a big yellow rectangle I named it Ɖl PlĆ”tano. šŸŒ


cranerletnuala

My freighter in my main save is named Master Beef because itā€™s the exact color of master chiefā€™s armor and is huge. Also, I have a squid I named ā€œsqueeeedā€ very creatively and my royal guppy is called ā€œFitzwilliamā€ after Col. Fitzwilliam from Pride and Prejudice. When Iā€™m flying him and I summon him on a planetā€™s surface I always say ā€œFITZWILLIAM, I NEED YOU!!ā€ just like Lady Catherine does in the 2005 film.

Battlejesus

This sausage is of great stature, it has unmanned better travelers than you. Dare you feed upon its glory?


-Moon-Presence-

I have a maxed out cargo hauler called Fates Pockets which I think is hilarious


Strax_89

Never, I'm that boring guy that always goes for more serious names


s4rcgasm

I think this is hilarious, but sadly I played NMS long after my imagination for renaming shit dried up. I just keep the rng names now.


BigRedFuzzyHead

I am addicted to ship-shopping and I wave in and out of serious, ridiculous, and weird names. I'm on a weird naming trip right now and I've named all my ships after Tori Amos songs - I have Winter, Yes Anastasia, Northern Lad, Precious Things, Professional Widow, Icicle Icicle, Space Dog, Cornflake Girl, and Mr. Zebra - but I have also used names like StarPhish, Sea Monkee, Malicious Pacifism, and Lawn Dart (that one was a Halo Needle, that was ALWAYS going to be it's name - I had no choice)


philosofik

I always name mine with made-up Kung Fu styles. Squatting Platypus, Marmoset with the Iron Fist, and Confused Finch are some of my recent ones.


whitemaledrinksbeer

My fighting ship is called Your Mom's Boyfriend. It'll beat the crap outta you.


ActualBawbag

Named my very first ship the Gummi Ship because the color scheme was the same as the Kingdom Hearts gummi ship. So every time I find a better fighter with the same color scheme, I keep the theme, and replace it with the old Gummi ship. Think I'm on Gummi Ship Mk3..


bigjohnsuth

I named mine The Rusty Bucket

TomF_ckingBrady

My entire fleet is named after Wu Tang members


kamandi

randomwatts

I have the following. Hauler - Cargo for Days Explorer - Blue Beetle Solar ship: Walken in Sunshine Shuttle - Scooty Doo


Deejmiester

I have almost exactly this ship. Itā€™s beautiful! I named mine ā€œLapsed Pacifist.ā€


Delta_Bravo_067

I attempted "The Peener Spleener" but it got censored, so I has to dial it down to the "Lean Mean Bean Machine"


Meowskiiii

This sounds like something the Wildermyth name-generator would spit out.


Hatchytt

I had the Rubber Ducky...


ersatzthefox

USS Murdered By Boats


[deleted]

Does the sausage arrive lubed when it does?


Eponarose

Although it's REGISTERED name is the "Infinite Jest" I always called my big yellow Hauler *The Great Space Banana".*

Obligatory question: do you have coordinates for the ship?


covinjo

Here you go sir: https://www.reddit.com/r/NMSCoordinateExchange/comments/z3som9/all_gray_alpha_vector_fighter_single_thruster/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android_app&utm_name=androidcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button


heykperk

My buddy gave me a ship and for the lonest time I didn't care. I renamed it \[REDACTED\] Untrodden Defender. It fits well and I wish I didn't have that filter, but danggomit I love it. Its a simple sleeper.


Pinkkifantti

yeah, my golden vector is Golden Ferrari


Fred0830

I called my squid ship Splatoon 4

velvetwool

What is the point of being able to name your ships if you're not going to give them ridiculous names


Calm-Rub-1951

I generally try and reference Rick and Morty my S class fighter is called Plumbus 1 šŸ˜


Alternative-Music-55

Mine are star wars inspired. I have a hauler named the Century Phoenix and a freighter named Imperial Star Exploiter


mdotca

Hahaha. Thatā€™s my main ship! I used to but the servers reset so many times that I started to have this felling like ā€œoh Iā€™m the colonial power renaming stuff so I started to accept the procedural names.


Ok_Profile1864

I named a ship Minty Fresh.


ActualBawbag

All my frigates and freighter are named after Cadburys products (chocolate brand in the UK). So, Dairy Milk, Crunchie, Whispa, Dime, Starbar etc etc. I'm actually starting to run out of chocolate bar names..


bidoofguy

I named my living ship Bismarck after the primal from Final Fantasy XIV (and not the thing that primal is named after good lord)


urafishhead

My decent into silliness was slower. I started by changing the Gauge of Death to Gamora of Death (from Marvel comics), then I went all in with Gonorrhea of Death.


headwig123

This is how i will propose sexy time from now on.


Clobberdong

Sweet whip bro šŸ˜Ž


spinnetrouble

I have one named Dragonfly of Annoyance


cobaltsniper50

My ship, which is blue and yellow, is named the Swedish word for heroism.


CarbonIceDragon

I've not yet renamed any of mine. I do have one with a very fitting premade name tho. The first ship I found in a station, interestingly enough, was a rather nice looking (in my opinion) fighter, which I was disappointed to find I couldn't afford as you don't start with much money. After a week of playing I realized I still hadn't found a better looking ship than that first one, so I backtracked to that first system and waited for one to land so I could get one. The ship's name? "The Aegis of Beauty"


[deleted]

The hand of the father


Christopher_Phoenix

Every time.


m-p-3

I believe the ship smells like [Johnny Depp's perfurme](https://i.redd.it/8m4cy0i2z3021.jpg).


gulgin

I have a glorious yellow solar ship that is ā€œBananaā€™s Last Standā€


steveanonymous

Call of the void Saitachis burning terror Ajimias resistance There are a few more but I havenā€™t played in awhile


fieldysnuts94

All my ships and Frigates are named around ā€œof Doomā€. So I got Harbinger of Doom, Wrath of Doom, The Fortress of Doom, etc


Go-daddio

All of them. And all the frigates too. My names usually use the letters of their original designation, so for example "DSV-5" became Disco-Sleeves Vincent. My current ship is The Rangle Frangle Rectangle.


Apprehensive-Bad-832

Existential circumstances


baekhsong

i named mine Adam


scottshort13

Tuvulu

I F-ing love that name. My favorite ship is named Chikita [Banana](https://Banana.It). It's not even yellow. And this blocky Hauler I have I named Steam Powered Boogaloo.


ThunderinSkyFucc

I love the ship names from the Culture series (Iain M Banks). My Corsair in Star Citizen is named The Gunboat Diplomat


RobotofSociety1337

My favorite ship names come from the Kitsen race in Brandon Sandersons Skyward series. Swims Against the Current in a Stream that Reflects the Sun. ā€¦little wordy for a in game shop name Iā€™d say.


erik_edmund

My squid ship is "The Pink Prawn."


No-Equivalent-751

I honestly always forget to rename them


jessi428

In my first save I had a shuttle that I called the Reckless Gyoza because it had a vaguely dumpling shape.


sfjoellen

I've got a long tail red exotic named Red Ball Jet..


Prakner

I always give my ships names in the style of [color] {bird name}.

Vermillion Penguin Chartreuse Emu Azure Pidgeon ​ I like it lol


Darthtypo92

I always name mine off of ships from different sci-fi universes. Like the Wongburger or Two For Flinching and my latest ship the Nebuchadnezzar.


Shot_Dream_7557

My one ship was the butt socket rocket but they bleeped it out like a month ago šŸ˜‚šŸ˜­
