Likely names for the G3 class

Were the G3s supposed to be named after British saints?

Probably not; the saint-name story is uncertain and admiral names better fit the likely G3 naming scheme.

The saint-name rumor belongs more closely to discussion of the N3s, and even there it remains an uncertain story rather than a settled naming plan. The Royal Navy's naming direction makes admiral names the more likely choice for completed G3s. Repeated speculation about saint names does not match the institutional pattern the service was following.
