Voted for Sojourner just because I've always liked the name.
Help me name my starship...

I was thinking Sojourner but went with Renown instead. Not sure why but is just sounded more Intrepid-Classish to me.
I clicked Daring, but am rapidly changing my mind. With my dyslexia it'd quickly mutate into Darling. Cue Blackadder jokes. So I'd go for Renown instead, given the choice.
Although it has a noble history, the name Astute has unfortunate resonances nowadays (beaches on a sandbank, crashes into the rescue tug, site of a murder). Not an auspicious name.

Or, go with the U.S.S. (Roberta) Bondar after the 1st Canadian (Female) Neurologist in space on the Shuttle Discovery (launched: January 1992).
