Wasn't this the Olympic?

This was the Furies, not Furious. Greek Mythology again.

I believe that JMS has said that they are batch marks. This matches 
with the Agammemnon being 'one of the first... off the production 
lines' (Sheridan in 'And For a Word').

I suppose that it's quite possible that many but not all ships 
in the A batch were given names starting with A and so on for 
the other batches.
