I like this one: maritimenav.com/images/Images%20for%20Website/Star%20copy.jpg (without the circle around it). Going back to the original topic of this post...I'm trying to decide if I should stick with my Mieal Deneb name (I use it for Star Wars stuff...just made it up) or pick something more mythical/Greek. Any thoughts? My brother did discover that the name "Deneb" is actually a star...that fits with the constellation/Greek thing.

If you do decide to change your in character name here are a few I found. Mostly Gaelic or Greek.
Isis Niamh (Neve) Adonia Andromeda Ariane Briseis Charis or Karis Echo Halcyon Persephone

Deneb sounds good but for Original BSG I would leave the Mieal since most of the characters only has one name. Example: Starbuck,Apollo,Sheba,Athena ETC.....

This is the image I wasgoing to use...let me play with this today and I'll post a rough draft.

I am just going to stick with Plwel.....Bouri-Plwel has been my character name for everything forever, and I have decided that Lt Plwel is going to be Virgon (since I am Virgo)

I did see that there is a Greek goddess named Rhea, I'm guessing it's pronounced "Rae" ["Ray"]. Rae is one of my nick-names, so I might go with Rhea. Still haven't totally decided... I've always thought of my character as coming from Caprica because I'm a Capricorn. Seemed to make sense.

I've found out that Rhea is pronounced "REE-a" not Rae, but I think I still like it: Lt. Rhea from Caprica of the Blackstar Squadron...

My name Sarika(which I use on forums ) is of Hebrew origin and means noble or princess Persephone (my RPG name on the BSC) is of ancient Greek origin, after the Godess of Spring.

Kronus - I just took it from the series (Commander Kronus on the Celestra) since it sounded like a Kool "Klingon" name! Yes I am Klingon at heart which is why I can *"cut to the quick" and be a bit "strong" at times...As Monolith discovered at CondorCON...LOL! Which does tie in to Commander Kronus' persona...which is why "Kronus" is his grandson. * Version 2

Spatter, We are sticking with the original Series when it comes to names, There is only one name, and no call sign. We have Lt Kronus, Lt Killian, And Lt Edan, all single names, not call sign.

Hey gang.... Long ways from a Costume but I wanted to get my name on the master list if possible....
On the Callisto I go by Skyler (which was the original name for Apollo before it was changed to Apollo due to sounding too much like Skywalker). On the Callisto I am a Major, but in Skyler's backstory, he graduated the makeshift Warrior's Academy they had set up on Galactica, due to the abundance of pilots and lack of Vipers he took a enlisted posting in the Colonial Infantry and worked his way thru the ranks. Since he had passed the Warriors Academy and was flight certified he also pulled time as a pilot, flying mainly deep recon missions and patrols. When the Callisto was found he took a commission as an Ensign assigned to Gold Squadron. He is currently the Commanding Officer of Gold Squadron.
I had never considered having more than one Uniform for the Battlestar Universe and it would of have been for the Callisto. However, with the formation of Blackstar I think I would have to look into two jackets and just swap collar brass on the tunic....
If the Major is a problem, I can go with Captain or Lt either one no problems....
