Unique Unit Names

I was thinking that for the events which spawn units, these units could have unique names. Some of my favorite dystopian names can be recycled GI Joe Names:

Slip Stream - Gunship
Leatherneck - Marine / Infantry
Lady Jaye - Great Spy?
Crankcase - Jeep / Tank
Blowtorch - Flamethrower

etc....

The first three such units are called "The Tankbuster" , "The Wanderer" and "The Pilot". I like the ones on the GI Joe page. I have at least two art units which aren't in the game yet. One is a dual-uzi wielding infantry, and the other is a heavy bounty hunter. I may add some more using these names.

There is a grammar problem in the messages with this style of names: "Your The Pilot has killed a barbarian ute!" But the same kind of problem happens in vanilla with great generals: "Your George Patton has killed a barbarian ute!" So I am not sure what is the right type of name to use. I assume FFH, which has a lot of hero units, has the same problem, but I have not checked.
