Help me name my boat

[Gyrene]

Just Bought an unnamed 1998 Sea Swirl Striper 2150.
I want to name it. I had come up with Nautilust, but wife nixed that, saying it had sexual connotations (So?)
Main use for boat is Salt water FISHING.
Place your vote - and THANKS!

Be original - Pick a name you and the Admiral like.

be careful asking others to name your boat or you may come up with boaty-mcboatface

Boatmen have traditions. Traditions need to be adhered to. If you use cutesy names your not a Boatman. A Boater is just a guy with a boat.

My boat is the "second". It was named after my father's boat, which was the "first". It is named after my Mother and my Grandmother. I got the boat before I married my wife, hence her name is not on it.

Name the boat after your wife. It will please her and she'll be onboard with boating, and that's the most important thing...

Like taking a pole to name your child.

My wife won't let me name my boat Boaty McBoatface and it pisses me off. She isn't too fond of the second choice "The Elusive Blue Gill" either. So the boat remains nameless.

If I see one named boat per year, i'm surprised...people rarely name their boats in my state as we are a state of small boats. When I'm traveling around the country though, I do see a lot of double entendres as names.

To some of the comments -
1) I am not a "Boatman" - whatever that is, and I am not going to be a poser who wants to pretend to be a boatman. I own a boat because I (and wife) enjoy fishing.
2) I have always liked witty names on boats, so I will name mine - with what wife and I find amusing.
3) I want input for what others like - decision is mine and my wife's only - I am looking for what appeals to others from list of what already appeals to me, I am not looking for decision to be made for me. I would like name to appeal to as many as possible, hence the poll.
4) I want to thank those who took the time to reply and advise.

Why do you care what others think? You bought her and pay for the gas.

The decision is you and your wife's only - So why ask? Rudderly Confused.

 

[Old Ironmaker]

Then name it Miss Boaty McBoatface.

Off topic, sorry but I have to tell someone and only my wife's Cat is here and he only understands her and hates me. Not a single snow flake all Feb. It's blowing off the lake and I might have to shovel for the 1st time this winter, What the............?
