"Are We Cool Yet?" is not a military ship but in fact an eccentric terraforming control ship/musical conductor with a habit of using its terraforming tools as part of an orchestra. Orbital Bombardment in D Major is one of the few works that uses a planet as a percussion instrument.

"KE=1/2MV2" (the formula for kinetic energy) would be an interesting, if long, name for a mass driver weapon based capital ship.

It gets more fun with relativistic antimatter weapons
"GOU (MC^2)/sqrt(1- (V/C)^2) + MC^2 where did the magic smoke go?"
y = 1/sqrt(1-(V/C)^2)

KE = (y - 1)MC^2
KE = yMC^2 - MC^2

AE = 2MC^2

Etot = KE + AE
Etot = (y - 1)MC^2 + 2MC^2
Etot = yMC^2 + MC^2
Etot = (MC^2)/sqrt(1- (V/C)^2) + MC^2

Well there's a quick way to crack a planet open...
 
I dont think you can top falling outside of normal moral constraints for a battle ship funny and absolutely terrifing at the same time

I thing ezo on unshielded blink drive missile makes more sense it will even give culture a run for its mony
 
Itty bitty diplomatic vessel. "Gunboat Diplomacy"

Someone notes, "But it isn't a gunship?"

And then, a moment later, the much larger warship "Diplomatic Gunboat" appears in system...
 
"Continuation of Policy" military or policing vessel.
"Huh, That Was Interesting" science vessel.
"Secure", "Contain", and "Protect", a trio of "Foundation" class planium removal vessels.

Relativistic antimatter weapons do unfortunately not work well in our universe a relativistic missile made of antimatter would instantly start burning from cosmic dust without a shield and would explode if it hit a grain of sand on its way to it's target.

Fortunately for us antimatter becomes the lesser energy contributor for projectiles above 0.866C or 6.2 times the distance between the earth and the sun an hour.
 
Other possible warship names (forgive me if I repeat one or two, but the list is getting rather long):
"Diplomatic Incident"
"Intentional Damage" and her sister ship, "Collateral Damage"
"Space Cleaner"
And
"Harmless Scoutship" (the last being the biggest, most heavily armed ship one can build, mostly to leave everyone wondering what a Real warship looks like.....)
 
This Really Is A Moon - 650km diameter planetoid that blinks in-system and glares at the enemy.

Let's Be Friends - 1500km planetoid that follows it...

Well, You Were Warned - 100 meter ship that is mostly gamma laser with a really big fusion plant glued on ;)

I'm pretty sure that every internet rule and movie genre exists somewhere in space.


"It was like that when we got here" - exploratory vessel or scout ship
"Beware of Greeks bearing goods" - diplomatic or saboteur ship
"The last place you look" - stealth ship
"Say hello to my little friend" - a massive dreadnought or capital ship
 
Of course, then the Geth have a go:

Ignore This Unit - Stealth ship

Crewed By Organic Faction - Ship that is not crewed by an organic faction

This Is Not An Intentional Infiltration Vessel - Perfectly normal freighter

We See No Batarian Faction - Anti-piracy hunter. This is a Geth joke
 
Scout Ships
"Perpetually Lost"
"Where am I"

Spy Ships
"+20 Stealth"
"With Catlike Tread"

Cargo Ships
"Stuff Mover"
"\/ dꓵ ʎɐM sᴉɥꓕ \/"
"Fragile: Handle with Care" - The most banged up ship of the lot.
"Useless Rocks"
"May Contain Content"

Messenger/Courier Ships
"Don't Shoot Me"
"Mark as Read"
 
Still most epic name is
Mistake Not..., short for Mistake Not My Current State Of Joshing Gentle Peevishness For The Awesome And Terrible Majesty Of The Towering Seas Of Ire That Are Themselves The Mere Milquetoast Shallows Fringing My Vast Oceans Of Wrath
In hydrogen sonata the aliens that are going to regroup with that ship are like : y tho?


Will we have official contact with citadel? Or they are going to kill them by spooking them to death .

The ship thats going to make first contact : I made poor life choices
