slightly alter them every year.

merely tracking sizes/types - subcompact, compact, mid-sized, full-sized,

This is sort of what I was trying to get at.  I think that there could be
hyperlogical systemic ways to derive names for the vehicle classes, but i
also do like the idea of coining a new word altogether or using an ancronym,
possibly one that is not rooted in a word from a common tounge.  I think
that ship names and variant classifications, should be left to the
individual manufacturers to determine for whatever thier personal reason.
