Just got finished watching some vids over again in the vid section and it made me think:
What are the coolest corp names in Eve? I mean the corp names that are make you say, "hmmmm....cool." at the sound of them. I know that their are a lot of corps out there with ok corp names and names that play off of humor, but only a few demonstrate a perfect combination of creativity, style, proffesionalism, and coolest.
The ones that come to my mind as best are:
-North Star Networks -Taggart Transdimensional -Jericho Faction -Red Core Faction
The worst corp names that come to mind are
-m0o, although they have established thems as dominating, the name still is uber lame -c0w -M.O.M. -PIE
What are your favs? Please no self promotion.

A corp that I USED to be a part of (this doesn't count as self-promotion since I'm not a part of them anymore) had a cool name:
Blackstar Mining
I just thought it had a nice ring to it.

I don't know about m0o as a good name, remember when you guys would warp in and be all "WE gonna m0o up this system" and stuff like that.
besides it always makes me think of the cow level in Diablo...but maybe that is just me. oh and I HATE leet speak (insert constipated with frustration emote please)
I also have to agree that any corp that uses star trek or star wars or dune names really is just terrible...I look the other way for Babylon 5 names but only because that show kicks serious butt.
And I LOVE the "Cult of Chuthulu"...reminds me of 8-bit theater when Black Belt attacks the Chuthulu monster and after a few karate chops and squishy moments he screams "That's not a tentacle!!!"...poor confused Black Belt...

Edited by: Gariuys on 05/04/2004 09:19:24 <<-- It's shameless but I really like our corp name.
Worst, that would be a difficult one there are a lot of corp names that are really bad. generally when it has numbers in it or is all caps, stuff like that it'll fall into my really bad category. Although some names come back out of that category just cause that really bad name kinda suits the corp and it's members well ( m0o for instance )
Edit: and I agree with the above poster names from star wars, star trek or other assorted sci-fi series just shows a complete lack of imagination. ~{When evil and strange get together anything is possible}~ A tool is only useless when you don't know how to use it. - ActiveX The grass is always greener on the other side. - JoCool |

Just so people know PIE is actually an abbreviation.
The 'proper' corp name is
Praetoria Imperialis Excubitoris
praetorianus -a -um [belonging to the imperial bodyguard, praetorian].
excubitor -oris m. [sentinel, watchman, guard].
As we are a roleplay Corp which defends our imperial empire and emperor from external threats I think it is quite fitting...
As you will agree though the latin name is a bit of a mouthful so we have become known as PIE...

Edited by: XpoHoc on 05/04/2004 14:40:38 I always liked corp names like Hosokawa (sp) and similar names that suit prefectly in game (Caldari in that case). Everything that sounds realistic (Techell, TTI...) is good aswell. Another corp name I like is Tyrell, it's not very imagative but I love the movie Blade Runner. I really enjoyed the name Space Invaders the first time heard about them, prefectly for a pirate corp that has people in it like Viceroy ;)
I don't like names like Bladerunners, The Borg or other names that sound like movies or stolen out of existing movies (except Tyrell).

I actually think our name is fitting for the Eve world.
We'd need a nice big statue at our home station to make it really good (Maybe CCP can move that one at the Amarr empire station for us ?), but it's decent.
In name i catually like Evolution too, Hadean Drive Yards is very good too imo, fit's the background perfectly.
And i agree with names out of well known movies etc being lame. _______________________________________________

hmmmm....was that a pun? I get it, Milk---m0o.
I think the best names are the realistic ones that are kindof all encompassing. Like Taggart and Xanadu. They add to the RP depth of Eve. Some corps have semi-decent names but kill the catchyness of it by adding Mining, or Technologies, of Industries to the end. Seem like the name limits the scope of the corp.
NPC names are all pretty cool too.
For worst names I'll agree with everyone else with the numbers in the names and alluding to star trek, and star wars.

Philos Ordinis, my first mmo group. great name, but it has been lost here in eve. i also like the name Backwater for some strange reason. same with ngru reikoku i think is a sweet name. has a nice ring to it. and of course, 'togco' the Organgrinder & Co. i vote that one for most original.

I think we have a great corp name for Eve, even if it is sort of 'borrowed' from an episode of the Simpsons.
No you have a great name for a Dwarf clan in Lineage II or similar games.
Best name in EVE is Omega Corp, imo.

Out of well-known corps I'd say I like Evolution and Vengeance of the Fallen as corp names...just catchy imo. Can't really begin to speculate what the worst corp name is though considering how many corps there are ingame.

I agree, Sun-Ra is problably the best avatar name/picture I've seen in Eve. Much Props.
btw, additions to the worst corp names:
-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. ___________________________________________

Oberon Incorporated (Oi) originated in beta 4(?) as "House Oberon" then switched over to accomidate the corp structure of EVE.
"Crice" sounds to much like "lice" or some kind of breakfast cereal.

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.)

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.

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...

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. |
