I love that the guys say something like “it means war horse”. Rocinante is a word play with “Rocin antes”. Rocin being an old weak horse unfit for serious work and. ‘antes’ is the spanish word for ‘before’.

  From the book:
  
  Holden punched the comm system on the wall. “Well, crew, welcome aboard the gas freighter Rocinante.”
  
  “What does that name even mean?” Naomi said after he let go of the comm button.
  
  “It means we need to go find some windmills,” Holden said over his shoulder as he headed to the lift.
  
  Try harder.
