I take no responsibility for the following list of eight names, other than that they’re in a notebook I own. His fault.

• Jack Dandy
• Man of Steam
• The Gurkha
• Ironclad
• The Boffin
  • Bright Young Lad, his robotic sidekick/assistant
• Bulldog Jill
• Diamond Jubilee

I like "Diamond Jubilee" the most, but that's only 'cause I'm, y'know, mostly gay. How did you get so creative, man?

I eat right. Thanks!

Those are great. Let's see, how about:
Dreadnaught
Maxim Gun*
Red Ensign
Fathom
Jack Tar
King Cotton
Governess

*anachronistic I think, but hey, it's super-tech

And, if we include the benighted heathen duskies of the Empire:

Mussulman
The Raj
White Man's Burden
Untouchable

I love Fathom. Wow. The Gurka is a great idea, but I love them in companies-- less of a PC thing.

There's also plenty of candidates from British ship names; always the best named ships of English speaking navies/merchantmen:

Indefigatable
Cutty Sark (something to do with a shirt?)
Leviathan

The Gurka/Cutty Sark reminds me of the co-opted, backbone of the Empire Scots:

The Black Watch
The Fusilier
The Highlander

I'm coming late to this party. That's what I get for having a weekend where I didn't have time to do more than skim the Friends list.

But I have to throw in "The Noble Savage." You need one of these of course. Blue blooded chap raised by apes or wolves or lemurs or some such. Constantly fighting to restrain his savage urges and be a proper gentleman. I'm so totally about playing this kind of character.
