The Millennium Falcon, The Uwana Buyer, The Slave I, The Executor. The best, most well known and well loved ships in the Star Wars galaxy have names. Not that naming a ship is an easy thing to do. There can be a lot of thought going into even the most simple names. The Empire tends to give their ships, and by extension their weapons, really imposing names. There's not much to mistake that when The Executor flies into a system, heads are about to roll. The Republic's names for ships tend to be softer by comparison, either being simple like the Tantive IV or the telling, like The New Hope.

Star Wars: The Old Republic, continues this trend. From The Black Talon to The Brentaal Star, just looking at a ship's name can give someone a clue to its origins or to the person and the crew who pilot her. A ship is more than just a way to get around, to hop from point A to point B. To our characters, their ships are their homes (and for others it's their livelihood as well). With ships having such a deep connection to our characters, naming them seems the next step. Names of ships aren't to be considered lightly, as they reflect the personality of the character as a whole.

The names of the ships for my own characters vary greatly. From my smuggler's Nothing to See Here to my Sith warrior's The Death's Hand, they reflect something I try to make apparent with even how the characters are played. So my question to you is simple; what does your character name their ship and what made them choose it?
