If you're anything like me (and if you are, my condolences) then you know that coming up with good rocket names can be tough (hi @JumpJet!). So I decided to put a datacenter full of CPUs, aka ChatGPT, to work helping me out:
Enjoy!
Not bad for a first attempt. Definitely has the vibe, although not very original or exciting. Then I made it work harder:>>Give me 10 names for model rockets with a science fiction theme:
- Warp Drive
- Photon Cruiser
- Nebula Explorer
- Star Quest
- Galaxy Voyager
- Black Hole Explorer
- Ion Drive
- Dark Matter Hunter
- Solar Flare
- Cosmic Explorer
Now some of those are actually usable. It has correctly figured out that putting an X in words makes them sound high-tech. So I asked it for another 20:>>now give me 20 one-word names that are not real words but sound like they could be real
- Zephyrion
- Aethronaut
- Galaxium
- Neobolt
- Astronex
- Fluxion
- Ionikor
- Helionix
- Celestrix
- Aerodin
- Plasmor
- Quasatron
- Nebulynx
- Fluxoray
- Astrovar
- Novaflux
- Lunaris
- Sylvaria
- Cosmixia
- Eonexus
There's some good stuff in there. How about two word names with made-up words?Sure! Here are 20 one-word names that sound like they could be real, but are completely made-up:
- Lumirax
- Valtara
- Nexarion
- Synthex
- Veridian
- Cybrix
- Queloria
- Xyron
- Astryl
- Ecliptix
- Helirium
- Novaris
- Zephyrion
- Aerinova
- Vortexa
- Neostar
- Echolite
- Lyrius
- Zorinix
- Cosmara
Here, surprisingly, it seemed to fail to understand what I was asking for. But that's another good batch of nonsense names. I tried again with a more detailed prompt:>>Now give me 20 two-word names where one of the words is made up but sounds real
Certainly, here are 20 two-word names where one of the words is made up but sounds real:
- Aerocorex
- Synthapod
- Exocrypt
- Neosylph
- Astroflux
- Lumicron
- Xenomech
- Aquazoneon
- Astrorift
- Novaquake
- Plasmafury
- Hypernova
- Starblazeon
- Quasitron
- Celestigen
- Chronoray
- Neoboltex
- Orbisynth
- Solariumix
- Cosmoflux
OK, I give up for now. Still, lots of great fodder for one-word rocket names here. I'm sure I'll use some of these in the future, if not letter-for-letter then at least as inspiration.>>Now give me 20 names, each one composed of two words, but one of the words is made up but sounds real
Certainly! Here are 20 names, each composed of two words, but one of the words is made up but sounds real:
- Heliosphereon
- Stellacrest
- Technolight
- Neobloomer
- Pyroclastix
- Cosmocade
- Spectroxide
- Lumithorn
- Ioniflux
- Aqualithic
- Astralume
- Plasmavolt
- Solaraxle
- Synthosonic
- Novacrest
- Neomarble
- Hyperlume
- Nexalight
- Quasiflare
- Chromacore
Enjoy!
