I name them alot of things, after gods, godesses, subjectives, paranormal things. Some english, some norwegian.
Skrømt for one blackjack I own, which means Wraith.

What I do wish there were. Is an settings option to display nicknames IN - GAME. Cant be that hard to do. And rude/ filthy words could pass a word filter, replaced with stars *

My IS mechs are named after pets of mine and friends.



My growing Clan Prime collection is named after the Forsaken, with each variant named after an alias of said Forsaken. After 13 or so, i'm gonna have to change to some other scheme.

Upper left corner in the mechlab you find a little pencil. There you can rename any time you want.

Yeah, me too. I have gaelic/celtic expressions, weapons, demons, gods and heroes as well as alot french terms and historical personas. 128 mechs atm, 122 named.

e.g.:
KGC-000(L) "Redempteur" - Redeemer
MAL-MX90 "Balor" - One-eyed king of the Fomorians
HBR-Prime(I) "Chat Acier" - Steelcat
MAD-BH2 "Caladbolg" - The sword of Fergus mac Róich
KTO-GB "Tigre du Est" - Tiger of the East
etc.

KTO-GB "Tigre De L'Est" - Tiger of the East
HBR-Prime(I) "Chat D'Acier" - Steelcat

With 12 letters and no-special caracteres alloweed in name, french isn't the best language for name mechs
