10% times Nuttin.

Maybe write it as:

10xNuttin

Carry the Nuttin'

Heathens aplenty?

'This boat' (As in and we shall call it...'this land')

Fuzzy Kneecaps? I can see it now, Ship Fuzzy Kneecaps.

...I'm bad at this :(

...Are we even still suggesting names?

My Mom suggested Fairlight.

As to the question before us, leave 6 and 7 in the running. We may be hugely obsessive fans but that doesn't mean we would only accept a Firefly reference.

And to suggest, Shadow.

Since you can't probably use Black Pearl...

Blue Sun (and use the logo?)
I like daveshayne's suggestion "Shadow" as well.

My fave would be:
Malcolm Reynolds -- put his middle initial in, if we can find it -- it's dignified and "still flying"

Having spent some time on water I'm a little superstitious (best word for "nervous" here, I admit) about boats with tipping, sinking, or any other kind of physical danger associated with their names.

Evenin' Cappy.

Why's the Rum Gone would be great for a twenty-two footer that spends most of its time in the marina. Or for a cabin cruiser. I think you get over fifty-sixty feet you need some dignity.

If you could find some of the old Pogo cartoon books (drawn by Walt Kelly, if I'm recalling correctly) from the Fifties you'd find frames of Pogo poling a little boat which sported various gigantic names on it. "Maynard J. Keynes" and the like. Real people.

ZOKANARA RIVER would hold all the ladies' names and some would think it a hydrographic feature, some would catch on, and some would ask, but the answer could be one sentence.

You may say I'm overthinking this, but I got really sick of explaining a boat name some years back, and it wasn't even my idea.
