Whatever ship I am currently using will probably follow the presidential model, and be renamed to 'Beagle One' while I am using it.

Placeholder names include:

'Big Bertha' for the T9
'Golden Hind' for the Anaconda
'Victory' for the Viper
'Defiant' for the Vulture
'The Beagle' for my original Cobra

I must get around to writing 'The Voyages of the Beagles' at some point.

One of them will be Hispants giving rise to Godspeed Hispants (an appropriate response on encountering live Thargoids?)

S.S. Minnow

After trying combat in a Asp Explorer, and getting blowed up, me thinks Millennium Asp is more like it.

Python - Roxanne
Anaconda - Back-slider
Fer-de-lance - Mommy's Little Monster
Diamondback Explorer - Skippy8
Diamondback Scout - Jiffy
Cobra mk4 - Lil' Bastard

Eagle - Thistledick
Asp Explorer - Flying
Hauler - Cabbie

That's leaving the ships I haven't purchased or thought up names for as of yet.

I tend to be inspired mostly by certain songs. Roxanne is more from the Steve Martin movie more than the Police song, however. Sting and the gang has better offerings to take from than just that

Lol, I'm not cool enough to know Ten Ton Heavy Thing was a thing.

What came to my mind was the beginning of Queensryche's Empire
(but 2 tons wasn't enough for a Type 9). ;)

Ten Ton Brick is from a band by the name of Hurt. Pretty sure it's floating around on YouTube. Quuensryche. Wow. There's a band I haven't heard in quite some time. An old friend of mine growing up was a huge fan of theirs.
