Boeing F-47 NGAD future name guessing

I for one hope that they would change the designation to something less stupid than F-47. Where they got that number, random number generator or it's just political? My pedantic soul cries for F-24/34 already... /rant over

Since it is meant as a succesor to F-22, the Raptor, a good name would be Predator. Too bad it's used for a drone. Nimrod would people not take seriously, but how about Venator? Sounds cool.

If the designation actually IS a homage to P-47, Thunderbolt III is an obvious choice.

Personally I think F-26 would have been most appropriate and Voodoo II would be a good one.

But I am unfortunately expecting it to be the Golden Bolt
