Well, since Shivan is after "shiva", and Shivan names are Demons / Hindu mythos... You could call it a Brahma-class (Hindu Triumvirate god of creation)... Or you could name it Kaitabha-class (Kaitabha attack Brahma)...

Here: this may help.

Another one that may work is Kurma,

The Vedic cosmic tortoise. It is the second avatar of Vishnu or Brahma. After the Deluge, Kurma placed himself at the bottom of the sea so that a mountain might be placed on his back. From this mountain the gods churned the sea and retrieved the treasures of the Vedic tribes.

In other words, a ship is sent to make a settlement. They will use that settlement to cause trouble, and take that which they desire.

Sounds good... Although I like Mammon better, Kurma sounds more 'Shivan'. And it fits in for its role - transporting stuff for a new Knossos - that would cause a lot of trouble.

Should I re-upload it with the new name? Better - upload it to FSMods with the new name? Just as long as it's all right with Trashman, since it's his model.

Wouldn't there have been communications though? They wouldn't just totally forget a colony ship.

Communications between systems are made through subspace in FS, hence the lack of communication between Sol and the GTA/GTVA after the Lucifer was destroyed.

How is that relevant? Even if there wasn't subspace communications, there might be more conventional communications.
