The short answer for mine is "I can't remember". However, I have theories...
I watched a BBC documentary about the Atlantis legend and the Thera eruption that may have inspired the stories. I found it quite interesting, and a while later when I started up an RPG (which never got off the ground), I named the ship USS Atlantis. Leading from this, the first mod ship I made for A1 became the USS Atlantis. Then the story's a bit similar to Majestic's; Atlantis always became the surviving 'flagship', etc.
There was also something about that, whilst I was a fast and agile runner etc, I sank like a stone (not being able to swim in any other direction than downwards, until recently).
I'd also like to point out that I named myself Atlantis in 2001, before Stargate stole the name for their new series. =P
