How It Works
Ship names are generated in three registers: a naval prefix form ("ISV Long Patience", "HMS Kestrel Reach"), a definite-article name ("The Ashen Wake"), and a bare phrase used as a name ("Second Verdict", "Unbroken Argument"). The bare-phrase register is the one that reads as modern science fiction, so the generator weights toward it while still offering the naval forms.
No name is checked against any franchise's fleet, and none of these are official content.
