101 Ship Names

[rkanodia]

Hi all. I'm running a Spelljammer campaign, and while I'm not bad at coming up with names, I think it would be good to have some ships named by people with different inspirations. The factions I need to represent in space are:

Humans (military and commerce)
Halflings (commerce)
Gnome (science and salvage)
Elves (several houses, roughly analogous to feudal Japan, pre-revolutionary France, and ancient Egypt, among others)
Pirates of Dubious Racial Identity (arr!)
Drow
Mindflayers
Goblinoids (military)
Giff (military, these guys are sort of colonial British)

and maybe others that I've forgotten. So, I'll kick it off with a few of my own. A brief explanation may help, but is not necessary:

1. Crow's Eye (tradesman class merchant vessel)
2. Irrefutable Logic (wreckship run by gnomish scientists)
3. Siren's Song (pirate ship captained by Big Jack Platinum)
4. Wandering Star
5. Dire Constellation

6) the Elbereth (Elvish Warship)
7) the Ocean Star (Yacht or Trader)
8) Flayerdoom (Dwarf Rebels)
9) Free Trader Beowulf
10) Enterprise
11) Correlon's Courage
12) Poison Fang (Yuan-ti)
13) Bane of the Spider Moon (Elven flagship)
14) Thor's Hammer (Viking-crewed Hammership)
15) Battlestar Planactica p)

My vote also goes out to a trio of exploration vessels by the names of Gorgeous Nina, Santa Migraine and Pinata Party

16) The Bloody Kraken a pirate ship
17) Morpheus' Daughter a pleasure yacht
18) The Demoness a naval frigate
