I have a rather fairly sized file full of ship/class names if you want
it.
It's not complete; I'm always adding to it (or adding to another file
that
someday will get added to the main file ;-). I also have online a set of
fleet rosters for the major powers (the UNSC is still being worked on -
but that's been put on hold for a while until I get another major
project
finished up later this year). It has names you can freely draw from for
other ship  designs for said powers. The URL is:

If you want the shipname file I've been putting together, I'll send
you that offlist.
