Name for a boat?
UnrulyRiffian Started conversation Feb 19, 2009
I've just bought a boat but I don't like her name so I'd like to change it. I think an H2G2 reference of some sort would make a good name but I'm afraid my pathetic grey cells are rather failing me, so I'd be grateful for suggestions.

Aah 
I like Heart of Gold. But if I had a boat to name, I'd call her Serenety with thanks to Joss Whedon

'Lightly Seared on the Reality Grill' is my favourite offering from Iain M Banks Culture novel, Matter. For a full list of his ship's names see wikipedia.

If I had a boat I'd name it ECHO in capitals, and paint the name close to the waterline.
As E C H and O all look the same upside down, you'd have the name repeated in its reflection, which would simultaneously be a pun and a (vertical) palindrome.
