Since I have yet to actually start my gaming life, I have no actual ship, but I do have an idea:
Tinfoil Angel

I am actually planning an engagement on a Colossal (Cruiser) sized mining ship called the "Red Dwarf" at the moment. The PCs will be hitching a ride on the Red Dwarf to get away from Coruscant when it gets attacked and boarded by pirates in a transport/gunship called "Flash Gungan". The pirate ship will have a reputation around that area of space which will allow the Commander to say to the Pilot, "What do you mean, 'Flash Gungan approaching'". With a tip of my hat to Queen and the excellent 1980s version of the movie, Flash Gordon.

In the Legacy Era campaign I'm GMing, one of the PCs started with a retrofitted, old-school YT-2400 named the Sunset Zephyr.

After that was destroyed in the Sith's bombardment of the local spaceport (by the ISD Lawbringer), the ship was replaced by a YX-1980 transport named the Second Chance.

Interestingly enough, the ship was already named that by its previous owner.

For my group, we have the "Banshee's Kiss," a tweaked YT-2400, which was named as a nod towards the owner's aunt, Sirona Okeefe.

From our tabletop current game: a YT-2400 Spinward Savant

From my online game: A heavily modified Corellian Gunship Innocent Bystander

From my infinties Game: Retrofitted Venator Right to Rule

From an old online game: modifyed YT-1300 Booty Snatcher It was owned by the Squib in the group. Apparently that particular phrase does not translate well into Basic from Squibese. So everytime someone brought up the name, her character would go into a tirade about how lacking and un-poetic the Basic language was.

From and old online game: Firespray transport: Ryyks of Death

A Wayfarer Class Transport, the Non-Sequitor. (Owned and piloted by Vareth Non.)
Also known as the 'Sitting Duck' on its alternate transponder code.
