This airship will be part of a fairly secretive society that does some “behind the scenes” work to keep the various governments and other organizations in check. They also stop the occasional threat to the planet. The names don’t have to be specific to this idea though. Any airship style names will work fine.

The Black Pearl, Interceptor, Ptolemaios, Exia, EVA…

*10 fun points to whom ever guesses where this is from

The Moldy Crow*
The Ravens Claw*

The Raven’s Claw was a fast light courier that replaced Kyle Katarn’s old ship, Moldy Crow.

Google powah!

I deduct 20 fun points for your use of google.

Most ships tend to be named after people and/or famous battles.  I’d pick a famous battle during The Last War or a major leader.

In fantasy lit, a color and another noun are common.  Think Madlibs.
