Starting New Primaris Marine Chapter

Hey guys,

Not sure if anyone still visits here but hopefully we can spur some life back into the community. I recently came back to Warhammer 40k after a long absence, I wasn't a huge fan of the last edition although really like the direction that Games Workshop is heading in now.

So I picked up a new starter box and got to work putting the models together, I've since undercoated my space marines but am not sure what I want to call my chapter. I did come across this Chapter Name Generator that's provided a few good suggestions. So far I am stuck between the above list.

Am interested to see other people's home made chapters and what they have named them.

Hello and welcome!

My space marines are from a friends custom chapter, dating from the rogue trader days
The Deaths Head recruit from an imperial medieval world, so heraldry and knights of old theme -I use the fantasy empire horse heads to decorate my vehicles, empire knight shields as combat shields etc

My company markings don't duplicate the markings my friend uses, so if they should ever be fielded together there is nothing duplicated - eg no two captains of the 5th company, no duplicate first company squads etc.
A few pictures that are here in my gallery -

Thanks!

Been looking about and thinking on going with something not too dissimilar to the Red Scorpions colour scheme, mainly greys and blacks with some orange/yellow to give it a bit of colour here and there

Must admit I like the new Primaris. Started adding some to my red scorpions. Few pics for inspiration on your idea.

I'm yet to learn anything about the newer primaris founding chapters... It's interesting though having the option to start hem as a totally new army rather than shoe horn them in my current one.
