Line 1: When the [[Inner Sphere]] first encountered [[Clan]] [[OmniMech|OmniMechs]] (and later second-line [[BattleMech|BattleMechs]]) they were not privy to the designations each machine was known by among the Clans. They assigned reporting names, often based on the appearance or perceived capabilities, in order to define the units encountered. The practice of assigning reporting names was occasionally continued beyond the initial [[Clan Invasion]]. Even a century later, after the Inner Sphere had long since learned the proper name for these units, the initial designations remain in common use. Certain Inner Sphere designations were even adopted by the Clans; for example, [[Clan Diamond Shark]] would use the ''Mad Cat'' designation for their Inner Sphere-marketed ''[[Mad Cat Mk II]]'' and ''[[Mad Cat III]]'' 'Mechs, while [[Clan Ghost Bear]] would develop the ''[[Ryoken II]]''. In some cases, as with the ''[[Cauldron-Born]]'', ''[[Grendel]]'' or ''[[Roadrunner]]'', the Clan designation would be abandoned entirely in favor of the Inner Sphere code name.
