New ships need names

[Anubis]

Too right. Nothing is simple nowadays!

[Dogma00]

I think the names should run the path that their currently on. Using the names of greek gods/or mythical creatures.

My list

Pegasus
Athen
Minerva

[Anubis]

I like those names, although I doubt they will be named those

[the adventurer]

Howabout the Christian Patheon? They always get the shaft when naming things

[Anubis]

Cool name, I like it

[Avalar]

Name a ship after Thor. Come on, he already named two ships after members of SG-1, let's repay that little tidbit

[STG-1]

There have been several USAF officers killed in the line of duty from the other SG teams during these past seven seasons, correct? I would say that one of them would most likely be choosen first in the RW.

[AgentX]

The Janet Frasier. Sounds interesting.

Even though there have been several occasions when SGC has lost members I don't think that automatically entitles them to getting a ship named after them. Usually if they name them after humans, they are of historic significance. Presidents and those types. As cold as it may sound its the truth.

[the adventurer]

Howabout great Leaders from world History? The Napolean, The William, The Washington, The Khan, etc....

[STG-1]

Many USAF airbases and US Navy ships (destroyers and smaller) have been named after those military members KIA. True, just getting KIA doesn't mean that you get something named after you. But if you were the first member of your organization to be KIA, that would count, as well as someone who saved a lot of others before getting KIA.

[DownFallAngel]

The Janet Frasier. Sounds interesting.

Maybe instead of that, the Nightengale Class? As in Florence Nightengale ( revolutionized nursing and nurse practices).

[Torley]

Wasn't that a ship from an episode of ST: Voyager that Harry Kim captained?

[AgentX]

Nightengale. Yeah Harry took command, but if I recall correctly not a great job was done.

Maybe the Asgard just aren't that creative and really can't think of a better name than the Daniel Jackson.

OK, after reading the official USAF/USA/USN regulations on the naming of aerospace craft, the "Prometheus" should be a BCS-303 type spacecraft. Here "B" stands for Bomber, "C" for Transport, and "S" for Spaceplane. This BCS means that it was designed mainly as a transport, but it has major offensive and defensive weapons onboard. The "S" is added to all spaceplanes (i.e. those craft that operate mainly outside of earth atmosphere, but takes off and lands like an airplane).

But the BC-303's aren't bombers they are Battle Cruisers.
