The origional meaning of the name Corvette is a "small lightweight warship".
So, stingray, mako shark are all aquatic, so it should continue to remain aquatic traditionally.
..............how about, Jellyfish??
J/K
It should be something aquatic though.

I think Manta Ray fits... they both have long, flowing curves, graceful moves, and a little bit of evil in the way they look.
Oh, and EG -- if your move to Florida involves driving Grond down 95 and through the DC area, give me a heads up and I'll take you out for a beer or lunch. I bet we can get a few DC area folks together to meet the legend.
