Titanic is quite a good name for a ship. I wonder how the public would accept that as a name for a ship these days? I would certinly sail on it. would you?
Yes, some of the names relate to nautical. Some were derived from names that referred to royalty. Many names are to appeal to your senses on how you should feel while you are on a cruise. Then we have the recent barrage of "Patriotic" names which everyone relates to.

Carnival's new ships for 2009 and 2011 will be Carnival Dream and Carnival Magic respectively.
Has Carnival come up with anything original lately? Borrowing names from RCCL, now Disney. Maybe they should get a jump on them and use the name Goofey!
It does get rediculous. The last original name they came up with was Destiny. And guess what? They did not come up with it.. It was a contest to name the ship! And that one won
