What are some good names for a smuggler's ship? I have thought about naming it The Renegade, but my DM hated it amd I'm bad at coming up with ship names.

Think of a sea creature (this includes birds which live along the coast) that hides or hoards things.

Done.

One of the games I once played involved a succubus dualclassing as Dread Pirate.

She called the ship The Sloppy Seconds. I was more partial to Tight Quarters, personally, but oh well. The Girthy Bowsprit was another contender.

What about 'The Dancing Siren'?
In my experience, good tavern names and good ship names are pretty interchangeable.
As are racehorse names

Especially when you consider that these are the names that the Culture Minds picked for themselves.

Even better, the 'gravitas' running joke exists in-universe because someone complained about the silly names.

You're all wrong.

Best name for a smuggler's ship, if a plane or spaceship, is The Casual Flyer. If a sailing ship, The Casual Sailor.
