Huh? is this a name listing competition or something? or your favourites?
Without looking at the book or anything I can suggest:

Ultramarines
Blood Angels
Blood Drinkers
Imperial Fists
Crimson Fists
Black Templars
Iron Claws
Dark Angels
Salamanders
Griffon Legion (think they were called a legion - those red and yellow quartered ones that were on the back cover of around WD190)
White Scars
Space Wolves
Aurora SomethingOrOther
Mentor Legion

I'm sure there are loads more - I ignored the 1st founding traitors and I can't remember most of the second foundings :D

:D yeah, they are a little easy like that - although from the starter painting guides they do, most Marine liveries can be done that way (especially when GW brought out their Ultramarine Blue, Blood Angels Red, Dark Angels Green and Space Wolf Grey spray cans!)

Would it not be better to undercoat them white and then paint the black and dark bits black? that way you're not painting white over black and you still get the same effects :)

ive tried that too.. it makes the grooves a lot harder to paint.. and the cleanup afterwards is annoying.. but most of my army is painted the latter way, i just did 1 squad of warriors and one crisis suit using the white over black method..

There are some out of the ordinary chapter names out there, but most of them are all simple heraldic English, a combination of two simple words (e.g. combine blood, dark, angel, raven and guard in any order until you find something good) or they're faux-Latin/Germanic or similar (can't think of great examples, but things like Imperiators are more Latin-esque)

I don't think we ever worked out the aim of this post - black templar posted it and never came back to it.

Could lock it, but I'm feeling lazy so it can stay open for now (unless it gets stupid/off-topic)
