So glad there is someone else who puts names to their ships.
I rather boringly stuck to names of battles i.e. Waterloo, Hastings,
Agincourt.

I found the names helped to identify what the ships did and how they
were
faring
in battle. Quite often I'd be looking at what damaged boxes to tick off
saying things like
"not the Kursk again!"
Naming ships is a quick way to discover which ones have a death wish :)
