What is your favorite naming scheme for destroyers or other ships?
Short answerBattle and animal names are strong choices, while traditional names such as Daring and Decoy also carry accumulated naval meaning.
NotesShip names connected to battles, animals, and recognizable subjects are preferred over arbitrary labels. Inherited Royal Navy names such as Daring and Decoy have also acquired meaning through repeated use. Those names carry associations even when they do not fit a single descriptive theme. A naming system can combine clear subject groups with institutional memory passed between generations of ships.
