BATTLEFIELDS
DIGNITARIES

WWII corvettes in the RN & commonwealth were named after flowers or castles - take a look at the list on this web page Corvette Names for some ideas

KLM zerstorers are apparently named after prominent people.
So I expect I'll probably see names like Princess Inge, King Christian, and Archduke Ferdinand in addition to ones we already know- like the Otto and whatever the one in the campaign was called.

My Lohengrin is the Wolfhund. Or, if I feel like it, the Hollehund.
We are going to be able to have a name decal on the bow of our ships in MP, right?
Might be nice to have an online ship registry, too. So nobody copycats and nobody can just enter something lewd into the SHIP NAME field.
