The ability to rename your mechs is supposed to be coming whenever they finish up their UI2.0(fullscreen mechlab and more).

Yes, I did not realize that you could name mechs, at first. So my first mech, an STK-3F, has the inspired name of "STK-3F". Fortunately, subsequent mechs were named for the builds I intended for them. My STK-5S, inspired by the 'Noisy Cricket' 4ERPPC Cicada, is called "Sleepy" (due to his projected, then realized levels of narcolepsy) and my splatcat wannabe STK-5M is called "Scattershot". Since then, my mechs are named for those of my children that watch me play with rapt attention (Li'l Edward and Clairy Bear).

I would forget which variant I have and have never named them so I can see that detail at a glance.

Sometimes though I think it would be nice if I could name a mech after people at work then walk it into the middle of the enemy camp and watch the fun - ahhh stress relief in mech form :)
