Since we're only tossing about known forum corporations I'd have to say Oberon Incorporated for the better brand, it sounds like it could actually fly in a business setting.
Since M3G4 is dead M0o is the worst.

Quote: -British Space Corp. -Other RL political names
how unoriginal. I mean, national pride is one thing, but referring to RL politics and making a corp based on RL nationality is sooooo uncreative and ruins the EVE roleplay totally.
Oh PLEASE, Deathblo. Go and read WHY we're called the BSC....we have a backstory written in our forums and on our website. Please go and read that before you talk about roleplay and RL. The other reason for being called the BSC is so that we were easily associated with out sister guild in the "Other Space Game By Westwood".
Stop, think, and THEN comment Deathblo :/
Anyway, there's no end to better names than the BSC, and a personal favourite is HDY. Jericho Fraction is good as well (Oh, no wait, that has an RL reference to a place in Israel...can't have that :/ )
Hehe, yeah i new i was opening a can of worms when i asked for the "worst" names. People take this stuff so personally.
Not trying to be mean Angry, but I've read your backstory and everything and only one word comes to mind, LAME. Especially the part about the Amarr-Briton Alliance
hmmmm... I've got some suggestions for great corp names, how about:
German Space Corp Polish Industries American Technologies Oh wait! Wait, I've got it!.................. NASA!! Wow that's just REAL imaginative and creative............NOT!!!!!
btw, I sense much anger in you Dr. Angry. (get it, angry....Dr Angry. Sorry could resist since we were on the topic of LAMENESS anyway.)

Edited by: Doctor Angry on 07/04/2004 03:18:37 Edited by: Doctor Angry on 07/04/2004 03:13:49 Uh-huh, and Deathblo really highlights an imagination blessed with years and years of practiced honing to it's currently very keen edge
We were going to change our already established name to one of a couple of alternatives, like Bold Amarr Star Trading And Reconstruction Division, or West Amarrian Noble Kingdom, or even Federated Amarr Response Team, but our investors decided that would be a mistake, and advised us to stick with a name that would be recognised.
Back to the tenuous hold on reality, one of our members took the time to write a backstory for a corporation name that was already in existence and quite well known in another game so that it could be recognised alongside it's sister-guild.
When you have the ability to come up with something better yourself, then please dont hesitate to contact the writer of the backstory......I'm sure he'll enjoy calling your attempt "lame"....actually, no, he probably wouldn't.....he's got more class than that.

TTI and HDY get my vote. Kudos to anyone who actually comes up with a meaningful, EVE-related name, basically; and severe negative karma to anyone who uses strangulated logic to try to justify having a silly abbreviation. (Praetoria Imperialis Excrement, more like...)

Eh personally I don't see anything wrong in having a real life place or country in your corp title, Eve itself calls the Gallenteans 'French in origin', and speculation has been running for a long time on what modern cultures the Eve races are based on. If BSC want to have Britain in their title, then go and write up a contextual basis for their corp name, then in my books they get more kudos than corps who just choose names because they sound cool.
Anyway, I'm going to go completely against that now and bring up some corp names I've seen over the past while on my travels and liked... so...
Shinra (FF7 rip-off i know, but I loved the game, and hence anything connected to it that doesn't do it a massive dis-service.)
Backwater
Space Invaders
Evolution
and my least favourite would be...
Celestial Apocalypse - just because it is *damn* hard to say when you're drunk, but that's another story altogether...

I always liked...
Angry Primate Extravaganza [APE], they had to have the best corp description ever....
"ook....Ook.....o***......monkeys....with...guns, in space" or something. I thought that was world class. Made me laugh every time i read it. not sure if they exist any more, but much props to them for that.

What about Iikhelahii khulemah'lal? Quite interesting name.
Names like Reikoku, Celestial Apocalypse and Critical Mass Enterprises are good in my opinion. Cosmology and Shinra are quite nice too.
I don't like something like The Borg Collective or The Red Hands.

IMO, the best corp names, as already mentioned several times, are the ones that utilise game related names and attachments...
For example:
Hadean Drive Yards is superior to most. Evolution and Forsaken Empire, because they sound like the were plucked from the same page as the Guristas, Sansha's Nation or the Khanid Empire (imo)
I usually dislike any references to earth and RL... simply coz it seems odd and completely uninvolving
However, that said. My Favorite few (even dispite the above comments in some cases) are:
Red Core Faction (obviously) Jericho Faction (which in part inspired our name) Hadean Drive Yards (coz its cool, no question) TTi amd Endless Corp (impressed upon me as a young beta boy) Forsaken Empire (coz the name sounds chilling) Everlasting Vendetta (I like it, ok...) and many more that run along similar lines
And I hate names such as Playboy Enterprises and copycat corps, coz it justs makes me think that they wish to be something they aint, or ever will be Names that have no RP basis or even a small degree of maturity in them (although, thats just an opinion, I have no problem with ppl interpreting their own idea of fun and ammusment, its just not cuppa)
But, having said all that, who are we to try and suppress other peoples choices... GL to any corp, regardless of name, that can make an impact on our community (Even M0o)
A freind by your side is like an army at your back. |
