I have a question, does anyone know where I can find name for BA rhino/ LR chassics for 2nd comp. I was wondering if BA had names like the White Scars do in their book " Hunt for Voldorius". Any help would be helpful, Thank you.

I think it'll be hard to find a depository for names. As it's for Marine tanks you can't go wrong with bombastic sounding stuff like:
Glory of...
...'s Vengeance
...'s Pride
Divine Duty
Chariot of ...
Unrelenting Perseverence
His Divine Justice
Aegis Terram

I know the Gaunt's Ghost series had one novel that featured some aptly named IG tanks, I'll see if I can dig them up since I have the books at home.

I rummaged quickly through 'Honour Guard' from Dan Abnett and found all named IG tanks spread just over a few pages, all in italic. Which was nice. :)
Some of them are obviously more suitable for SM tanks than others...

Heart of Destruction
Wrath of Pardua
Grey Venger
Death Jester
Strife
Man of Steel
Mighty Smiter
Old Strontium
Pride of Memphis
Say Your Prayers
Fancy Klara
Steel Storm
Lucky *******
Lion of Pardua
Xenophobe
Tread Softly
Beat the Retreat
P48J
