User blog comment:The LostWhisperer/Ship names/@comment-10390252-20130824171237

Being a Pokémon fan from way, way back, I prefer at descriptive Ship naming pattern that is a mix of two words representing the two characters. My suggestions are:

Ruby - Rose

Weiss - Snow

Blake - Beast

Yang - Flame

Adam - Mask

Junior - Bat

Glynda - Wand

Ozpin - Coffee

Jaune - Shield

Pyrrha - Spear

Ren - Lotus

Nora - Hammer

Melanie - Stiletto

Miltiades - Claw

So, for example, Jaune x Ruby would be RoseShield Shipping and Yang x Junior would be FlameBat Shipping. The anomaly of this (another import of the Pokémon fandom) is that, if there is a characteristic moment between two characters, this overrides the usual names. So, Jaune x Pyrrha is Aura Shipping, Ruby x Weiss is Sneeze Shipping and Nora x Ren is Sloth Shipping.

I oppose the use of colour names for ships as there are several possible candidates for every colour.
