Zinjo Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 (edited) Well since only members who live in Japan or have access to a Japanese cellphone will be able to make suggestions on the naming of the new VF-25 according to Azrael's post. I think we should toss out our own picks for the name, here. Edited March 7, 2008 by Zinjo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Hingtgen Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I thought the VF-0 was determined to have been named "Zero", like the Mitsubishi A6M. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
azrael Posted March 7, 2008 Share Posted March 7, 2008 I thought the VF-0 was determined to have been named "Zero", like the Mitsubishi A6M. Fine, VF-0 "Zero" The Macross F website uses "Phoenix" as an example so I went with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T.V. Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 (edited) Ten cents, they call it Valkyrie II...Was about to suggest that. Anyway, I'd like to return to female deities for a naming suggestion, instead of copy-pasting NATO names. With Hime-sama as the lead hero pilot, it's more than apt, IMO. How about: "Victory" - Named after the greek godess "Nike" and rhymes well with "Valkyrie" and the VF-25 looks like a reinvented VF-1 to me. Or: "Siren" "Venom" "Virgo" "Gabriel" - after the Angel "Eagle II" "Comet II" "Meteor II" "Spitfire II" "Viking" "Vulcan (II)" Not so serious: "Kadun Killah" Edited March 8, 2008 by T.V.

OmegaD3k Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Seeing how SK loves ancient mythology.. How about: VF-25 Arjuna VF-25 Vimana ("A vimāna (Sanskrit: विमान) is a mythical flying machine, described in the Sanskrit epics." -Wikipedia) VF-25 Vajra (lightning bolt) VF-25 Argo (ship of the Argonauts) VF-25 Aegis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gubaba Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 Keeping with the Norse theme: VF-25 Wälsung VF-25 Brünhilde (maybe not...) Keeping with Hindu theme: VF-25 Vajrayudha VF-25 Indra VF-25 Shakti VF-25 Kalki Or maybe a different tack is needed: VF-25 Seiko VF-25 Momoe VF-25 Gomaki VF-25 Ayu Vf-25 Mari ( ) Or my personal favorite: VF-25 Seraph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 All all the names suggested so far, I think Gubaba's suggestion of VF-25 "Seraph" is the most fitting. My suggestions. VF-25 Hellbringer. VF-25 Armageddon. Graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sorata Posted March 8, 2008 Share Posted March 8, 2008 (edited) VF-25 Bandit VF-25 Star Razor VF-25 Vedas VF-25 Deliverance VF-25 Stratus VF-25 Raider VF-25 Indomitable VF-25 Solar Wind VF-25 Malevolent VF-25 Mystic VF-25 Artemis VF-25 Viridiance VF-25 Trojan VF-25 Creed VF-25 Viper VF-25 Cobra VF-25 Nexus VF-25 Twilight VF-25 Nourn VF-25 Griffin VF-25 Dais VF-25 Eclipse VF-25 Flare VF-25 Squall All all the names suggested so far, I think Gubaba's suggestion of VF-25 "Seraph" is the most fitting. My suggestions. VF-25 Hellbringer. VF-25 Armageddon. Graham I like it too. I would also try the full spelling of it Seraphim or one of the other Christian angelic hierarchy like Cherubim, Ophanim, or Dominion to keep with the theme.
