Spider makes you sound like a peadophile. Sentinel sounds like something a teenager would think of. I'm not gushing with ideas myself of course, but just thought I'd shit-can yours!
The enterprise is probably something more fitting with your AGE Steve.
But let's look at this subjectively. It's long, thick, black and hard! It's also really, really, really fast!! So, name it after an african american teenager!

But teenagers get old, and eventually slower whereas the 14 probably won't get much slower, maybe older

If we went with an African/American teenager it would need to be renamed every 5 years or so... and Willis would be way outta date now Phil
Beyonce maybe it's a bit of a girls bike till you open it up I hear

But they aren't all black.. the nickname must last a generation, hence willis is no good and apply across the whole range, hence teenage african/american is no good either

Where's POnti? he's the nickname specialist!!!
