I found one book dealing specifically with names in Homer.  Unfortunately, 
it's out of print with limited availability -- price unknown.

Heroes' Names, Homeric Identities (Garland Reference Library of the 
Humanities, Vol 1366) by Carolyn Higbie   

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0824072707/qid=1074477530/sr=1-4
48/ref=sr_1_448/104-2297647-3155168?v=glance&s=books

Of course, there is 

El catálogo de las naves : mito y parentesco en la épica homérica
by Francisco Javier González García     

which is also out of print with limited availability and no price.

Another out of print book with limited availability

A complete concordance to the Iliad of Homer 
by Guy Lushington Prendergast   
    
This one is apparently available

Homers Katalog der Schiffe 
by Edzard Visser 
Other Editions: Hardcover | Unknown Binding 

At a (ahem!) most reasonable $208.29.

But I've saved to most likely for last

Price: $15.05 at Borders.
