Keep the name. This arguement could be made for several other ship names,
and it would be equally silly. It's not like we -have- a series
of     Atrocity-class vessels, or anything.

Fortunitely one can save time by using the U.N. peacekeeping mission names,

The comment has a lovely ambiguous quality to it, doesn't it? Could also be
pro-UN propagit, as in the UN cleaning up atrocity sites... ;->=

Thanks. With the discussion on the list I'm pretty confident the name is
neither a faux pas, nor inappropriate, even if it has multiple connotations.
Few names don't.

Names are strange things. I named my very first NI mini (the first FT
mini I owned, actually - won in the late great Estrell Cruiser Duels),
which was a Roma BB - re-flagged and christened the Dreyfus.
