Let's not feed the trolls. There is NO ship named after Queen Elizabeth II. There is a ship named after a World War I ship named the Queen Elizabeth I. So, like the Enterprise D, this is a ship named after a ship. Same thing for the Prince of Wales. Named after a World War II ship.I'd have to take a stab and say all QE ships, Regina or not, are named in honour/homage and after the original Virgin Queen. Just a few generations removed and namesakes.
Now, we do have the USS Churchill, the USS T. Roosevelt, the USS Ford, the USS Reagan, the USS Truman, and we've had the USS John F. Kennedy and the USS Franklin Roosevelt.
I advise you to do some research before posting. Originally Posted by the_real_Barleycorn
