Anthem of the Seas? Are you kidding?

I know it's been discussed before already on other threads. But a story in my local newspaper's travel section yesterday about the names that Royal Caribbean had trademarked a couple of months ago got me thinking... and I'm not sure I like them.

Anthem of the Seas - a singing ship?

Passion of the Seas - no comment! :D

Vantage of the Seas - sounds like a credit card

Quantum of the Seas - time travel ship?

Ovation of the Seas - chococates on the pillows? probably not!

Pulse of the Seas - Hate it! :eek:

I think we could do better!

Here are some of my names!

Magnificence of the Seas

Elegance of the Seas

Grace of the Seas

Oracle of the Seas

Gem of the Seas

Treasure of the Seas - This one is piratey but fun! Ahoy!

Glamour of the Seas

Temptation of the Seas - giggles - it's no worse than passion!

Narcissus of the Seas - Just Kidding! :D

Totally agree with you in regards to the new trademarked names...

How about: Sunshine of the Seas?

'Quantum' can also mean something that can be measured. It can also mean something that is very important. So maybe that's what they were going for.

I also agree that the trademarked names are awful. However, I wish they would avoid using names that other cruise companies use. Like Gem of the Seas is great, but there is already a NCL Gem. And, I love Sunshine of the Seas, but Carnival just renamed one of their ships Sunshine.

Also, I wasn't so keen on Allure or Oasis when those names were first announced, but they did grow on me over time.

From the English teacher:

Sonnet of the Seas

Lyric of the Seas

Ode of (to) the Seas

Ballad of the Seas

Refrain of the Seas

They also need to consider how the names would translate into languages other than English. Lots of examples out there of marketing mistakes where English brand names translate poorly, or even embarassingly (although some are urban legends).

Hope you have trademarked your suggestions :rolleyes:

otherwise you may not win the competition to name the new ship!!!

Quantum gets my vote... that's an amazing name.

Quantum of the Seas will have a godfather vs a godmother....and he shall be Scott Bakula.

That's real funny! but a kewl idea! :D

The comedian on Allure suggested:

Purell of the Seas

Refrain of the Seas

Sonnet, and especially Lyric are very nice-sounding!

Teddie

just ready for news on new ships

I have no problems with the names chosen. At least it's something different. I don't like having names that cross cruise lines such Norwegian Jewel, Jewel of the Seas, Carnival Freedom, Freedom of the Seas, etc. you get the picture. At least they're different.

Nickel of the Seas and Dime of the Seas

Longitude of the Seas and Latitude of the Seas

Nickel of the Seas and Dime of the Seas

Love it!:D

nickel of the seas and dime of the seas

lol! :D

I was just struck by my own twisted sense of humor here...forgive me...

Anthem of the Seas, sounds like a senior citizen ship...

[much like the health plans...since I work with insurance companies, that struck my funny bone] LOL...:D

How about Bottom of the Seas. No, that wouldn't work. LOL!

That's just evil! :eek: :D

I don't think Refrain is a good choice.....people might want to refrain from booking.

They should pick some awesome names:

Master Blaster of the Seas

Flame Thrower of the Seas

Bigfoot of the Seas

Turbo Supercharger Jet Fueled Dragster of the Seas

Ninja of the Seas

Millennium Falcon of the Seas

Rocket Sled of the Seas

.44 Magnum of the Seas

Hope bout iShip of the seas....can use the Apple Logo?

As long as they don't use Apple Maps. The ship will wind up in Oklahoma.

How about these nuggets; The Queen of the Seas, The Royal Lady of the Seas, The Lady of the Seas. The Sunrise of the Seas, just to name a few.
