Name a Zodiac (no prizes)

Hi, I've just bought a Zodiac 4.7 secondhand, built around the mid 90's. I am trying to think of a name for it. I dont want something that is funny now and wears thin in a few years, but something that is snappy, sounds good over the vhf, and kinda cool. The only thing I have come up with so far is 'Scorpio'. Any ideas? I've had a look at some of the other threads for names, but I havent really found anything.

Cheers.

"Pisces One"

Sounds okay if you say PIE SEES ONE - not so good as PISSKEYS ONE though
