It'd be nice if we could name ships after new things, instead of recycling most of the time. I mean, don't get me wrong, we should honor the memory of past ships and the sailors who served on them, but new names would be nice too.

I think the Royal Navy has some really interesting names... Ark Royal, Invincible, Indefatigable (quite a mouthful!). The Japanese Navy had some really poetic destroyer names too: Yukikazi (Snowy Wind), Hatsuyuki (Winter's First Snow), Akigumo (Autumn Clouds).
