Louis XIV is the leading candidate for the most namesake warships

Which person has had the most warships named after them?

Louis XIV is the leading candidate, although the answer is presented as a judgment rather than a complete count.

Louis XIV is offered as the likely record holder for ships named after one person. French ships repeatedly bore his name, and captured vessels could carry that association into British or Spanish service. Prince Eugene of Savoy is considered as another strong candidate because ships named for him served in several European navies. The answer remains a reasoned identification rather than a complete count of every namesake vessel.
