[Star Captain Kristen Redmond]

Headhunter was my long gone Catapult-C1 name which does not make sense because missile launchers are far from being accurate and or related to some sniper rifle...though a Catapult-K2 would fit a little more in the name but you don't usually see a 35 ton hunk of metal duel-wielding sniper rifles now do you?

[IcySpy]

I only have 3 mechs, and two are named.
CTF-4X- ballin-stix (dual ac/5+dual ac/2)
AS7-D- rokurwiator
The Atlas' name is a typo actually. I wanted to call it "f-u-up-inator" in Polish, but didn't notice
the missing Z between O and K. I facepalmed at first, but grew to like it after some time.
10 million c-bills more, and i'll buy myself a "D-DC-mator"

[Lord Letto]

RVN-3L = Letto 1
TBT-3C = CVA 0454 (Callsign for the VA I Fly For in Flight Simulator)
RVN-4X = CXA551 (same as above, except I don't fly with them anymore)
RVN-2X = BFL161 (^^Ditto^^)
TBT-7K = Treb of Boom (Cause Ballistic Hardpoints + Boom is the sound AC/20s make plus rhymes with Doom)
TBT-5J = Jumping Shot (Sniper/Poptart)
JM6-A = Dakka Swoosh (Can Go Dakka with Ballistics + Swoosh with LRMs)
JM6-S = Dakka Dakka! (Cause Dakka)

I Don't have the JM6-DD Yet Due to Lack of C-Bills and lack of funds to buy more MC for a extra Mechbay for it to go in, but when I'm able to get it, I'm thinking either Dakka Boom or Boom Boom
