Title: New Ship Name
Post by: Tbone on August 11, 2004, 10:39:03 pm: Yup, it's that time again! You know the drill. The name must be Latin-based. Decius has already suggested the Invictus, meaning unconquerable. Supposedly that was Kaelmobius' ship a while back. Any other suggestions?

Post by: Anonymous on August 11, 2004, 10:55:07 pm: The Vitamnia sounds cool to me... it means "Life-Blade" in Latin, I believe. Although the Invictus reminds me of this great quote... "If knowledge is power, then to be unknown is to be unconquerable". Fits in with the FA really well too, with all the mystery surrounding the clan.

Post by: Anonymous on August 12, 2004, 12:31:54 am: Well, I thought the Maelstrom might have been a cool ship name, but that isn't Latin and I can't seem to come up with a latin translation for it, so nevermind. Invictus is a very cool sounding name though, so one more vote for that
Title: New Ship Name
Post by: Anonymous on August 12, 2004, 05:06:21 am: The Eversoris, the destroyer or overturner.

Title: New Ship Name
Post by: Anonymous on August 12, 2004, 08:13:56 am: Invictus definitely sounds good, the meaning is great, & that qoute (Pyre) is very fitting. It gets my vote...

Post by: Anonymous on August 12, 2004, 12:56:56 pm: Isn't Nemesis latin?

Proeliator - warrior

Oraculum - place where an oracle is given

Bubo - The Owl. Ok, Im biased. :) You know I had to look it up.

Carnifex - an executioner, hangman

Aegis - shield (esp that of Jupiter or Minerva)

Just a quick few.

Got my translations here:

Of the previous two, I like both but prefer Eversoris. :)

Post by: Anonymous on August 12, 2004, 04:34:23 pm: Invictus does sound good to me, too. Here's a few others :

Dominari; to rule
Indomitbilis; untameable
Durabilis; durable, to last
Title: New Ship Name
Post by: Anonymous on August 12, 2004, 04:40:44 pm: Fetialis-Peace
Amatorious-Love

Also, the Machaera means sword. The new ship could be considered a sword of the furious angels, right?

...But how about Caelum means sky

Broin
Title: New Ship Name
Post by: Anonymous on August 12, 2004, 07:25:52 pm: I like both of them myself butI always a ship named The Infernes would rock. The translation is hell and you could have a quote along the lines of the name.

" A dark angel came and said he was bringing hell with him."
Title: New Ship Name
Post by: Anonymous on August 12, 2004, 08:06:25 pm: Yeah Invitus is prettycool-sounding.

As far as cool latin words go, I like:

Fortuna

Post by: Anonymous on August 13, 2004, 06:20:56 pm: I wonder if that lil Owl in Clash of the Titans was called Bubo....

Yea, if either Infernes or Invictus gets chosen...gotta keep those mottos!

I like Invictus, with that motto.

Title: New Ship Name
Post by: Anonymous on August 13, 2004, 10:26:42 pm: HEHE I thought it sounded cool but I'm glad to see that someone else thought it was cool as well. Honestly, I thought of it of the top of my head when I was posting it, just thought you would like to know.
Title: New Ship Name
Post by: Anonymous on August 14, 2004, 03:22:49 am: What about Fuiritas? IT means furious, but I suppose no single ship should have that name.
Title: New Ship Name
Post by: Anonymous on August 16, 2004, 09:23:56 am: I'm partial to Eversoris.

I also like Aeternum, which means 'eternity'.

Wow, my 'burb where I live is lating for a small,round shield. Odd, considering nothing about my 'burb is small or round.

Post by: Tbone on August 16, 2004, 09:24:58 pm: Invictus isn't gonna work. What's your second choice?
Title: New Ship Name
Post by: Anonymous on August 16, 2004, 09:27:46 pm: I'd go for either the Eversoris or the Infernes. Perferably the latter however, keeping the motto.
Title: New Ship Name
Post by: Anonymous on August 16, 2004, 09:49:37 pm: yeah, Infernes sounds good

Title: New Ship Name
Post by: Anonymous on August 17, 2004, 05:58:06 pm: Well being that you're one of my fellow crewmates Kairos I hope you don't get a headache from that. I say go with the Infernes because one it fits within the FA's ship names and the fact that we our the darker side of justice. So, we should go with it name and motto as well, if any other ships want a motto befitting of their ship and wants me to think of it PM and I'll se what I can come up with.

Post by: Anonymous on August 23, 2004, 05:33:24 pm: I know the ships have already been created, and I don't know that there is need for more, but in the future should the need arise, I think Aequitas would be a pretty cool ship name, if it hasn't already been mentioned. It means Justice.

Title: New Ship Name
Post by: Anonymous on August 23, 2004, 08:25:40 pm: Invictus gets my vote too. I hope I get assigned to it :-)
Title: New Ship Name
Post by: Anonymous on August 24, 2004, 01:39:46 pm: Why do all our ships end with "us". I think that most of the next ships we get should be more diverse. Like how Morphius' ship was the (I know I didn't spell it right) Nebucnezzar. We should have a few philosopher's names as our ships as well, or at least something without US!! I was thinking maybe the El Dorado. (Although I also think Invictus is cool too.)
Title: New Ship Name
Post by: Anonymous on August 24, 2004, 01:43:24 pm: We try to stick with latin-based names, Oz. Think up some great meaning ehind a name, then put it into an english-latin dictionary somewhere on the internet. It's kind of fun to think up interesting names that way.
