Ship and Tavern Names
From Finn's Companion #3, Julius 21, 1668. (Embellished a bit further when added to this site.)
This week we take a look at two of the favorite locations of sailors and pirates, their ships and the places where they drink. Sailors will encounter a lot of these two things in the their journeys and coming up with names for ships and bars isn't always easy, especially when there are 20 bars on the docks alone.
So, we present two names generators, one for ships and one for inns and bars.
In basic for, there are two lists, you take a word for list A and a word from list B, put them together and, voila! You have your name.
However, not all names work together, so you have to play with it. Tweaking names works as well also; make them plural, possessive, add someone's name, add 'of' in between the two words, or just add names to the list you think would go well. In the end these generators are designed to spark the imagination and get the mental blood flowing, and give you ideas.
