I name them like roman emperors with imperial victory titles. Instead of scipio africanus ("Victorious in africa") , germanicus ("Victorious in Germania") , claudius britannicus ("Victorious in Britain") , Lucius Verus Armeniacus ("Victorious in Armenia") Parthicus Maximus ("The great victor in Parthia") Medicus("Victorious in Media"), I give my ships names like scipio municus, publius dunicus the elder, Claudius minmicus maximus. It makes them grander sounding
