Used by my players:
“Go.”
“Let’s Rock.”
“And... fly.”

and once, charging into battle against a vastly superior force:
“LEEEROY JEEEENNNKINS!”
 
I remember early in the New Frontier novels, Captain Calhoun gave McHenry the desired course and speed and after a few beats asked why they weren't moving, and McHenry was like, you didn't say engage, and Calhoun just tells him if he gives him a course and speed, he wants to go there at that speed, and he doesn't have to wait for a further order.
 
We all know Jean Luc Picard's is "Engage".
Christopher Pike (DSC) is "Hit It".
Christopher Pike (Kelvin-verse) is "Punch It"

What's every other captain's "Catch Phrase" for going to warp / FTL?

What would yours be if you were Captain?
Pike in "The Cage" was the first to say "Engage."

Captain catch phrase?

"NOW Dasher! now Dancer!
Now Prancer! and Vixen!
On Comet! on Cupid!
On Dunder! and Blitzen!
—Capt. Clause​
 
Must be a hard task, knowing you're the 54267th captain over 3 centuries, and you still want to coin an original catch phrase.

I think most would simply stick to 'Helm, warp x, please', even if that is a less 'fun' answer.
