Just my 2 cents:

7th Romulan Viper Squadron (7th R.V.S.) (7th Romulan Deadly Viper Squadron??)
7th Romulan Task Force (7th R.T.F.)
7th Romulan Star Warriors (7th R.S.W.)
7th Romulan Roughnecks (7th R.R.)
7th Romulan Rogue Squadron (7th R.R.S.)
7th Romulan Ra'tar Squadron (7th R.R.S.)*
7th Romulan Veruul Squadron (7th R.V.S.)**
7th Romulan Mogai Squadron (7th R.M.S.)***

and just for fun,

7th Romulan Epoch Hunters (7th R.E.H.)

* = Large bird of prey on Romulus
** = Legendary "Croc-type" creature from Vulcan/Romulan mythology
*** = Even larger bird of prey, native to Romulus

I tried view this from the prospective that this "Fleet" will be the left-arm of the 7th Fleet. Must like 7th I.T.S. is the right arm of our Fleet. Thus, the heavy use of "squadron" in the name.

Respectfully submitted,

SQUAD, GUARD, TASK FORCE....Kind of common ... Maybe Element

7th Romulan Ra'tar Element (7th R.R.E)

Credit to Wupteedo with a spin

7th Romulan Tertiary Contingent (7th R.T.C.)

[Dr. Collin McGee]

Praetoriani Legio or it may be Legio Praetoriani

my Latin is a bit rusty. LOL

I suggest staying away from "Guard" names. The Romulan Guard, according to various sources, is the name for the entire military. In keeping with Roman naming structure, I believe that the Roman alternative to the 7th Fleet would be the 7th Legion. Thus we would be"


The 7th Legion, Romulan Guard



With the eighth, ninth and tenth legions, the Seventh was among the oldest units in the imperial Roman army. They were with Julius Caesar when he invaded Gaul in 58 BCE. The Roman commander mentions the Seventh in his account of the battle against the Nervians (57), and it seems that it was employed during the expedition through western Gaul led by Caesar's deputy Crassus. In 56, the Seventh was present during the Venetic campaign, and it later took part in the two expeditions to Britain (55 and 54). During the crisis caused by Vercingetorix, it fought in the neighborhood of Lutetia (52); it must have been active at Alesia and it was certainly involved in the mopping-up operations among the Bellovaci (51).

During the civil war against Caesar's fellow-triumvir and Pompey, the seventh legion fought in Hispania in the battle of Ilerda (summer 49). In the spring of 48, it served at Dyrrhachium. The Seventh was also present in the battle of Pharsalus (9 August 48). After this battle, the soldiers were sent back to Italy to be pensioned off, but in 46, they participated in Caesar's African campaign and fought at Thapsacus.

Next year, the veterans received land near Capua and Luca, but in 44, when the dictator had been killed, many of them joined Octavian, who reconstituted this legion in the autumn (together with the eighth legion) and used it to obtain a position of influence in the winter. Perhaps this explains the old surname of the legion, Paterna, which can be translated as "the old one". It fought at Modena in 43, and at Philippi in 42, after which it returned to Italy with Octavian, who used this unit during the siege of Perugia in 41.

Ok, im liking The 7th Legion... very simple, and falls in line with The 7th Fleet. The fact that the 7th Legion has a real world background, just as 7th fleet, its just icing on the cake.

agreed, legion is perfect...

I like it. Just will have to be quick, I'm sure others will try to nab that one too.

[xivim]

I remember when Head Start was a go, and we were trying to get enough people through the tutorial just so we could get the fleet started... ah good times. We just need to make sure we have people ready to roll.

[T-Jericho]

I see it now. A launch party kicked off with a race to secure the 7th Legion name!
