If you had your own cool spaceship (or more than one) in the Firefly sci-fi universe, what witty or cool name/s (other than anything as dull as a normal person’s Christian name) would you call it or them and please say why, for each spaceship.

I'd call my ship The Tinga, in memory of a fallen X-5, lost in the battle to free transgenics from the evil clutches of Manticore.

I'm building a kit airplane and have decided to call it "Mia Noi" - Thai for second wife. My wife suggested it, not really in jest, and I really like it.

I'd name it Icarus, in deference to the Greek who first pushed the envelope of flight, and as a reminder to use good judgement.

Why? Cause I was a baaad, baaad mofo when it came to internet-multiplayer Descent/Descent2
(being mistaken for a killbot more than once!)
I loved that nasty little ship.
Damn you Dravis...

I am sure this thread has been done..
But again I say I have always liked "The Dauntless" from E.E.Doc.Smith's Lensman series(pretty sure it was that series, but definitely one of his series of books).

I'm still thinking about the name of the ship but if she has a couple of shuttles I know what I'll call them.
ROTFL and RTFM
Just the tech geek in my coming out....

Dragonfly class heavy transport "Integrity"...
'cause integrity would be the key to getting jobs out there in the 'verse...
And someone said I had integrity once...

DragonFly was the name I was going to give a 3D model I have in mind for an Independents 'Dropship'/Combat transport, that was made by the same company/design team as the FireFly, cool...
