Yep that had occurred to me too, which is why I've had a rethink and come to the conclusion it would be better to go into the englishnames.cfg and change the neutral entries to:
M07X=Medium Merchant 07 (Unidentified)
Therefore, you don't have to edit shipnames.cfg or change the way it assigns names, the patrol log would just say:
'Ship Sunk! Medium Merchant 07 (Unidentified) ####tons'.
Seems the all-round best option to me.

Randomize ship tonnage option, right?
