Oh man, A Farmer and Banks fan, you sir, have taste.

And Iain Banks does have the best collection of ship names going. ever.
In addition to the names I listed in my post on Page 1 I'd also have to add "Serious Callers Only" to my shortlist, and as for the most "Smuggler Like" from Excession, you can't get much closer to on-topic than "Fate Amenable to Change"

I didn't think I was stealing his ship's name.


According to http://www.starwars.com/databank/character/talonkarrde/index.html and the Zahn novels, his ship is the Wild Kaarde. "The Idiot's Array" is the trump hand in Sabacc. Being a poker player that's why I picked it.

I want something cool and rougeish, but I just know I'm going to cave for a less clever and not-so-noble of a name like:


The Wagon Queen Family Truckster

Every good smuggler needs a ship. And every good ship needs a name. So, when the Space Expansion comes, what are you going to name your ship? (assuming we get the ability to do so...... /prays to the smuggling gods)







Awesome thread! I'm headed for Smuggler on Ahazi server...I'll name my ship 'Ronik.' The name has special Roleplaying value to myself

I hope we can have two ships. I'm getting an X-wing, no question, but they run a little low on trunk space...so I'm gonna need something bigger for business trips.


So I'll call it the "Stationwagon".







Why not call it a Winnebago?



The Eagle 5? No way, I'd get people wondering where Lone Star was, and when Barf turned skinny, black and female.

I'd most likely end up naming mine "Fourty-Two". After my favorite number (and referencing my favorite book "trilogy").

Really? Didn't know that, Kiernan. Oddly enough, however, Talon Karrde DID have a ship called the Idiot's Array, and probably for that very reason, which was destroyed by the Vhong off of Yavin 4 I think.
