I know that a lot of models are named after family members, particularly the females, but some totally fictional names do come about from time to time.
For instance: 1 of mine (an SHG trawler) was given the name "Aaron Dee" - this was just a play on my first initial and SWMBO's initial i.e. R and D - hence "Aaron Dee".

The registration number is also fictional BH103 = Blyth, my door number 10, and my third model 3.
Also, I have the Graupner tug Pollux but named it "Mondo" - quite simply from my son's name Raymond "Mondo" being quite common in Scotland, I believe.

Others I have seen have been named after favourite pets.
Anyone else got any ?
(with photo's if possible)
