When i was building my 28, 'Nostromo' was a very serious contender for it's name, even have some sketches from back then with that name on it.

Jon,

Is that where you got Leviathan from then?

I thought she was named after an old warship of the Admiralty.

No, Leviathan & Nostromo just happened to be two of the names on my shortlist, I didn't discover the connection between them re: 'Alien' until some time later, a pure coincidence.

My shortlist went summat like:

Aphrodisiac
Leviathan
Nostromo
Stormbringer
(name of a top fuel dragster a good few years back)
Supernatural
