Hey guys, there are a few different beer threads going, so I figured I'd throw another one up.
I've only been homebrewing for about 3 years now, but I am certain that I want to become a Brewer professionally. That's a few years down the line however.
What I need help with from you guys is names. I've never tried to come up with creative names for my brews, the only one I actually named outside of its style was a Brittish Brown Ale. I called it Flaming Carboy British Brown Ale, because the day after I had added the yeast the whole thing had blown off and oozed out through the airlock.
Anyways, I know lots of names are result of circumstance or some specific inspiration, but I figured you guys might have some names I could steal. If nothing else let this be a place to discuss and brainstorm with fellow beer intellectuals.

When you say brown ale, do you mean a kit, partial or full mash?
What other kinds of beer do you brew?
Personally the best I have done so far was a wheat beer, but that was from a kit.

When I say British Brown Ale, I am referring the to BJCP style guidelines.
The first batch I made was a dry Irish Stout kit. You know, pre-hopped Malt extract just add water and yeast sorta thing. Second batch was an American pale Ale with amber Malt extract, some specially grains and cascade hops. My third batch I tried all grain. It was a CCC (cascade, centennial, chinook) dry hopped pale Ale, dark gold colour. Since then I've been all grain since.

So far I've brewed:
Dry Irish Stout
APA
IPA
EPA
Coffee Stout
British Brown Ale
British Bitter
Wee Heavy
Cream Ale
American Amber
A few of the more popular styles I've made a couple different batches of. So far I've only one recipe that I've made twice, that Flaming Carboy British Brown. Not because the others weren't good, it's just that there's so much you can make, I like to try different things.
I also like to make fruit wines, and I've got a mead fermenting now. Never done mead before. It smells good so far. Very slow fermentation though.

Oh and a few different Wheat ales. I love all the fruit pairings. Also a gluten free Lager.

If you like wheat beers, try a Belgian Wit using the Wyeast liquid yeast. I made one with coriander and bitter orange peel that was exceptional and I generally am not wild about wheat beers.

Brobro... decide what beers you are going to brew regularly before naming them.
