This reminds me of a joke from my Navy days, an American and an English
sailor are talking and the English sailor was ribbing the American about
some of the ships names, claiming they named their ships after their
girlfriends. The American looked at the Englishmans cap tally for H.M.S
Battleaxe and came back with the quick retort that at least they didn't name
them after their mother in laws.
A good idea for Squat Warengines though.
Maybe some british WWII carrier names would be suitable.
Victorius
Indefatigable (a mouthful)
Indomitable
Furious
Glorious
Invincible
and you could even name an Overlord air ship the Inflatable <gg>
Cheers
