Juggernaught - I am thinking 'powerful' and 'unbeatable'
Dreadnought - Made of 'fire-punch' that destroys anything in its way
Battleships - are basic, yet powerful enough to turn a tide around
Drednaughts are just fancy names for battleships, It came from the HMS Drednought Of World War I.
Sarissa should be smaller for the number of guns/armor it has, but thats a known balance issue.
New Ranseur model is bigger, prettier, and sexier. Sarissa is rather useless, actually. And the Sarissa is the most agile battleship in the game. It's stats are superior in mobility to that of the Osiris.

Actually, its the other way around.
As Cam pointed out the name Dreadnaught comes from the HMS Dreadnaught (which was actually pre-WWI, launched in 1906), which was larger, heavier and more powerful than any other Battleship of the time. Hence "Dreadnaught" generally connotes a heavier, more powerful battleship than normal, which is the role they play in Disco.
Though the Sarissa being bigger than the Ranseur is strange, and should be rectified in .86.
The Sarissa being the most "agile" battleship in the game is a little bit of a misleading term imho. It turns great, but it sucks hard at strafing. Turns sadly allow the enemy to get closer while you are evading.
