Orange Huggy is listing every incident he can find and is using the Regional airline's call sign instead of the Major Airline Flag. AND, I was hearing names I'd never heard of: "Lindbergh", "Brickyard"
A brief Goggle search turned up relatively little on how these things come about and become official.
As I searched out one call sign I knew, I found some interesting background.
Perhaps this is a thread worth having?
Edit: The other big question is how these things come about and become official (expanding the sentence above). I recall hearing the "Waterski" call sign (listed below), back in the 1980's. I swore it was an unofficial, joke call sign that ATC was using...just wanting to open this up to someone who might know something of the procedures.
