  1. sea fox/ puddle pirate/ lady of the lake/ pond pounder/ play thing.  


  2. some hints:

    -ships and boats are considered femal, so don't give her a male name (the 'Pope Johannes' would still be a she..)

    -if you want to name her after a living person (full name) ask the person for written permission. If the person is dead, ask the family.

    -if you name it after your boy friend think twice. You might have to change the name...

    -a boat with an evil name might behave so. (The Teufelsbraut (=devil's bride) through off her skipper in a storm, he drowned. The other crew members did not realize for half a day. The Devil's Bride sailed along just fine without her skipper..)

    -if you want to make people believe you are an experienced boater, give her a name with a number

    -dont make the name too long. You will use it in radio communication (even though 'Fred from Jupiter' might be funny - you don't want people to just laugh when you transmit a 'mayday')

    -people who barely passed their Astronavigation exam prefer to name their boat after a star (the stranger the better)

    -artificial names like Josybo (the names of 'your' kids John-Sylvie-Bob); that's really out

    -what about the things you like, the names of Animee characters?

    -what about your pet Maddie? That sound like a good one to me!

  3. Reel Pleasure

    Reel Attitude

  4. Look up Pagan religions. They have a lot of cool sounding female names.  



  5.                                  TOAB WEN

  6. IceVixen

  7. A PLEASURE SHARED    

  8. Icefox sounds pretty cool!

  9. uss terd burglar

  10. Name it after an obscure, preferably alien, vessel from Star Trek.  

  11. What kind of boat and use? Themes help. Songs are good. I once used Foxy Lady(Jimi Hendrix) .

    Another good one....a play on words is Liquor Box....as in a boat full of booze. hehe
