Ok, lets give everything a name (voting on the third faction homeworld)

Roman uses -a and -us

Latin has several declensions, and only some of them use -a and -us to express gender. -a is usually feminine or neuter, while -us is usually masculine. Remember, Latin is a case language, so the endings change based on grammatical function: e.g. "Et tu Brute." "Brutus" is his name, but it changed to "Brute" because it's function in the sentence is direct address. Further confusing things -ibus and -ebus are endings also, and are different from -us. It's not quite that simple.

For Greek declensions, check out Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancient_Greek_grammar#Cases

I don't think messing with the endings is a good idea, they should stay in the nominative singular of whatever declension they are, unless we want to do something like "Ship of Life" -> "Ship Vitae."

What about "The Phoenix" as a ship name?

[Clavin12]

Or the Firebird but phoenix sounds better.

[AHadley]

Firebird makes me think Mozilla, which wouldn't be very good.

[VSMIT]

Clavin, if you haven't noticed already, people have started disregarding you.  I suggest you stop beating dead horses and attempt to make a meaningful suggestion.

[Clavin12]

That was a legitimate suggestion.

[Mr X]

I'd like to make a suggestion, how about "The star pheonix",

Star, because it travels through space (well duh )
Pheonix, because its a mythical creature that flies and is quite powerful. Also, pheonixes are reborn from their own ashes which links to the time loop in the story (the cycle keeps going).

Opinions?

[iron maiden]

i will second The Magellan and The Star Phoenix as the best suggestions thus far, perhaps we should create a poll soon?

[Mr X]

I'm giving it a week, that way everyone has a chance to suggest something.

[General BlackDragon]

The Preitah

The Crucible

[Mr X]

Would you care to explain those?

[iron maiden]

please

[Zero Angel]

How about
Unity
or
Einheid (the dutch translation)

[Mr X]

I don't know, they are particularly linked to it in any way.

[General BlackDragon]

Made up names ftw!

The Ikoshawa

[sabrebattletank]

Einheid (the dutch translation)

I don't think we should words that are in languages other than English or Greek (or maybe Latin,) unless you're offering to translate the entire mod into Dutch. :p
