Whats the stupidest name you've given to one of your ships?

The one that generates some chuckles, and oddly enough the one I took the most time to name, was the KSA A.R.S.E. (Asteroid Recovery Science Explorer). I try to give my ships acronyms that are kind of silly and also state their purpose. I have not done a proper acronym name in awhile though ;.;

I was amused at my Jool Atmospheric Return Scientific Expedition!

I'd say mine would be the Hella-copter. It was a surprisingly effective helicopter consisting of 6 jet engines pointed around in a circle. Control was a bit... impossible, but it did fly. Pilots complained of severe dizziness in the rare event that they survived the landing.

KTC: Kerbal Torture Center.

Basically a giant arm that swings around and then launches a Kerbal (hopefully) high into the air. It was not uncommon (but quite unfortunate) for them to be launched directly into the ground.

It started as a Momentum Exchange Tether, but, well, this was more fun :)

or my - Destined to Fail 1 - LKO crew vehicle. yes, its still 1! it never failed :D
"Nowayitisgoingtofly". It flew surprisingly well :D

Those are similar to my "SSThisWontLandWell", which touched down perfectly. Maybe pessimistically named craft try just a little harder to prove themselves?

Several Lunar landers have had the name "Lunacy"

My current station which is (in the role play sense) a collaboration by several nations, is called the kollabratory.

oh and the dumbest name (which unfortunately I won't share) was one I named after my ex CEO (who cheated me out of 1000's), I flew it into the Sun, it was cathartic.

My first series of ships (no, like actually my first 5 or so ships in the game) were named thus:

Ladybird Book of Rocketry fig.1

Ladybird Book of Rocketry fig.2

etc.

(BTW Ladybird book of rocketry fig.5 was the first object to orbit kerbin in my KSP)
