I've not encountered anything like that, but it puts me in mind of the Firefly RPG's technobabble table. Basically, something goes wrong with the ship and you roll randomly to determine the science-y sounding ship part ("reverse flux input" or something) and then the effect. Here's some thoughts I've had on making something like this: 1) The first roll (1d10) determines the length of the name. Some companies have very long names when you add up the LLCs, Tradings, Incorporated etcs which is why many use acronyms. Start with a minimum of 2 entries and add 1d10/2 extra components. 2) The second roll determines the first part of the name. Since these are sci-fi companies you should probably compile a short list of appropriate sounding prefixes like Exo, Gene, Mega etc. Another one is for suffixes (tek, clone, core etc) 3) The third roll (plus as many as necessary) add more meat to the name, with things here being lists of industry types (Hardware, Research, Tech etc) and business-y buzzwords (Solutions, Synergys, Paradigms etc). Maybe stick another one on the end for business types like LLC, Trading, Limited, etc. This should give you companies like Exocore Hardware LLC, Genetek Solutions and so on.
