I think this is the right place to post this, not absolutely sure though.
The new ship names are nice, but there's one problem with them: I liked being able to see at-a-glance what ship type it was. For example, when I'm chasing an enemy gunboat dest, I can see if it's a scout or a dread that just jumped in to defend. Sure, I can target it, but that wastes valuable seconds in combat in which my target can evade or jump away and I'm not firing. It also makes it harder to identify targets. IMO not worth it.
Also, when I came to beta, I noticed I had 20k credits, so I decided to try the 'Supply Ally' enh which I was considering buying in the regular game. It was a big disappointment, because the supply ship is set to defend, and it doesn't resupply you. I mean, it has 2 chem lasers for weapons! If you're worried about people spamming them, make a 1-per-person limit or something 
Thanks for reading this
