Well..........I've been doing my own list of ship name collecting and
assigning....some of them appear in the fleet rosters (notably the big
ships like SDNs and carriers). Plus I have listed for many of my non-
FleetBook ships names in the rosters. I've been hesitant to put out my
list of ship names for the fleetbook ships 'cause everyone has their own
opinion for naming schemes and I didn't want to feel like I was imposing
on someone else's list/opinions for ship names.

There're always the bases... :) (I know, doesn't look the same,
but...)
