Laughing Scoundrel (But I think that would raise a flag with the Alliance)

Maybe...

Indomitable

or

Resilient

Thank you. I thought so too.

im gonna copy half the ships in the sci-fi genre and say 'phoenix', or pick one of the GSV names from an Ian M. Banks novel.

Although I suppose that's a little close in sound, if not meaning, to Serenity to be all that original!

I like it. It's Serenity with a "dip" in it. Maybe one of the three nerds from Buffy joined the crew?

i've always liked the name bob. i named my car bob.



Random anecdote:

Someone once asked me, for whatever reason, what I would name a radio station. He was looking for call letters, so in my trademark whimsical manner, I answered "Bob."

Just a couple days later, he walked back up - looking a bit shaken - with the news that local radio station KOOL-FM had suddenly and inexplicably decided to rename itself "Bob." And so they had. They remain "Bob FM" to this day.

It's right up there in my repertoire of odd moments with experiencing an accurate premonition that singer Reba McEntire, whose music I've never even heard, was in imminent danger of breaking her leg.

Far as an appropriate name for a Firefly, I really can't top "Zug Zug the Rug Monster."
