My suggestion is this:
You could name them after either ship types such as...
Man-O-War
Schooner
Galley
Galliot
OR....
You could name them after historical Pirate Ships such as...
The Adventure (BlackBeard)
Adventure Galley (Captain Kidd)
The Bravo (Captain John Power)
The Desire (Capt' Thomas Cavendish)
The Fortune (Batholomew Roberts)
Theres a ton of ship names / info at this site: Pirate Ships

How about naming them after Christopher Columbus' 3 ships.. The Nina,The Pinta and The Santa Marie
Im in the same dry-dock as you on both counts. I have some 16340s that are long in the tooth but my wife and I use them in our Sabre mods. So I guess that means I will have to stock up. The one nice thing about using 16340s in the Mark-8 is that I already have a charger for them. Right now I have TrustFire and UltraFire, but think I will switch to either the AW IMR 16340 or AW icr 123 16340 protected battery. I would also love any feedback or preference pertaining to this.
BTW: Im glad Cappy is changing the name of the Mark-8 Sabre because there will be less confusion in my house when asking to pass the Sabre!
Since others are suggesting... did I mention I love naming things? I'll do some research and find some more if you like Cappy.
Binnacle is cool cause it's where the compass is kept. There's also Privateer and Swashbuckler.
Goonie?
One Eyed Willie's ship was The Inferno... just sayin'!

just me but I will not buy a mod called Inferno..sounds like a cheezy movie.Swashbuckler
I like Inferno too!
I like the weapon names. I would go with something like
Destroyer renamed to Blunderbus
Wench renamed to Dirk
Now the Sabre is the hard one because with this naming scheme IMHO the best name would be Cutlass but since you've already used Cutlass maybe Buckler, Caltrop, or Scimitar.

i like the way they have been named, like types of ships Pirate Ships man o war, sloop, brigantine, frigste, galleon, caravel,
Ship types: Destroyer, Cruiser, Frigate, Schooner, Corvette, Brigantine, Galleon, Battleship, Dreadnought all come to mind.
Swords: Cutlass, Scimitar, Dirk, Stiletto, Foil, Long Sword, Khopesh, Katana, Rapier, Claymore, ....... sword are some...

If ... I stick to the 3 types of mods previously mentioned, it would be nice to have 3 names from the same name family so to speak, such as Destroyer, Marauder, Annihilator, etc ... and totally drop the Mark-# designation which I would just use here in the shop to keep track of such things.
I think that these names make the mods feel more personal, like people, almost. Don't a lot of us give a name to our mods? This makes them seem more alive, being named after real shipmates.
i like destroyer, Man O War, and Dreadnought ... i have almost considered waiting for a destroyer just because of the name... im not a big fan of tanks though so name the new one something brutal and i will get it
so name the new one something brutal and i will get it- Status
