De bekräftas i officiell novellering
Akima waited in the Valkyrie's cockpit, already feeling as if her razor edge was starting to go dull. It didn't take long when you were sitting in dock to get itchy.
och
Phoenix was the name of the vessel. Cale did some checking and found out that the Phoenix was a mythological bird that was reborn from the ashes....
Perfect.
och i filmens skript
Corso: "This is the Valkyrie,not a singles bar. We're done."
Gary Goldman, i en PR-intervju , bekräftade namnen på de två fartygen. Observera att transkriberaren har misstänkt Valkyrie som Valkarie. Jag har inte kunnat skicka den ursprungliga intervjun, så behandla det här som potentiellt fläktskriven:
Goldman: Yeah. It's not so bad, I think, with the way we mix it. We let it just self-support. It doesn't get in your face. There's only two songs that get in your face, and that's the one that is when they rebuild the Phoenix. The song by Lit is "I'm In Over My Head". And when you first see Cale as a 19 year old, and he's working in the salvage dump at Tau-14, there's a song there that, I'm trying to think of the name of it, I think it's called....

Goldman: The Titan design was done before Don and I took it. It wasn't done as a computer element yet, but we had all the drawings that had been approved by the Fox executives, and the Valkarie had been designed. Those two main ships were designed. There were some rough approvals on Akima, but we redesigned her somewhat. Korso wasn't approved yet and Cale wasn't approved yet. There were some rough concepts that were close on Gune, and definitely on Preed. But all of it were drawings. There was no animation, per se, there was no layouts. I'd say there was a good 3000 pieces of art that had gone through in pre-production, but only a few things had been approved.
och den ursprungliga boxkonsten har "Valkyrie" tryckt på den

Enbartavintresse,detfinnsendelkonceptkonst här som indikerar att det ursprungliga arbetsnamnet för fartyget var "The Feenics ". Jag misstänker att detta var tänkt humoristiskt.
Du kan också se koncept för tre andra fartyg som uppträdde i öppningen "Escape from Earth" -sekvensen; Vanguard, The Longbow och The Guardian.
