What would you name your pirate ship

Recommended Posts

To celebrate getting my jolly roger in the game i would like to know what ship you would copy from the game and what name you would give your pirate flagship.  That is the story of the La Foudre, Micael Le Tir copied the Jean Bart renaming her which is not how pirates worked.  Most pirate ships were not purpose built but capture merchants transformed into warships.  During the age of sail captured enemy warships transformed into new ships for the navy that captured them.  What ship would i capture or buy and transform her into a pirate ship and what would i rename her into.  The first is i would call her he John Paul Jones "I have not yet begun to fight".  The ship would be the North Carolina, why i like the American Battleship design and there are multiples of the South Dakota Class, and Iowa but only one North Carolina, No the North Carolina CLR does not count.

Most indubitably, I'd name my pirate ship Queen Elizabeth.

 

But do you have the Queen's toaster?

I consider myself fortunate to have three Pirate Captains in my Port.

The first two are Commanders Marine Houshou the first, and the second.
(I liked the original 2020 Hololive collaboration event enough to welcome a second set of Commanders Fubuki Shirakami and Marine Houshou.)
The third Pirate is Commander Matilda Kelly, welcomed during a more recent event which introduced her and the ship Brisbane into World of Warships.

Current assignments ...
Marine Houshou (the 1st.) is Captain of the Hosho
Marine Houshou (the 2nd.) is Chair of the Entertainment Committee of my Port
Matilda Kelly is the Captain of the Brisbane

All my ships are pirate ships!

 

 

Jokes aside, it would be cool if we could rename our ships, or even a select few.

The ship name would be Steve, and the ship she'd be based on is the Aurora...

My ship would be a Marceau/Kleber class and of course it would me named: "Merde alors!"

 

Reminds me of the French defeatist politician from World War 1 whose name was Almereyda. Turned out to be an anagram for "y a la merde" (it's all ****). 

I'd take a St Vincent and call it the Redhead Princess

I would capture USS Massachusetts and rename her Boston Cream Supreme.  She would be a perfect “pie-rate.”

For me? Not sure about a pirate ship name, but my personal flagship would definitely be called the Benevolence.

Queen Serenity's Revenge could work though. (ideally a Revenge-class LOLS)

Or even the Pandora. 😛

(Since we're talking naval, guess it'd have to be a carrier if it was named that. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)

Suprised no one is using any of the ships named for pirates (e.g. Kidd, Drake.)

I'd go with Salem called, Dante's Inferno (using Alighieri might have been more appropriate, but Salem is a much better fire starter.)

Ok so it took me a while and a couple rounds but I finally managed to come up with some wonderful names for my pirate ships:

The Bouncing Baddie

The Furiously Fertile

The Grippy Griffon 

The Milking Maid

The Slippery Seductress 

The Missionary Masterclass

These are the best 6 (One for every inch) I could come up with.
