Apparently in that episode, the S.S. Queen Anne has been caught in some kind of time warp in the Bermuda Triangle after disappearing at the outbreak of WWII. Not a great omen for a new Cunard ship, is it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Germancruiser Posted February 7, 2022 #152 Share Posted February 7, 2022 (edited) Queen Camilla? I dout it! Not as long the Queen is around. Very wise of the Queen- as usual, to give the royal approval, for her to become Queen. I always opted for Queen Alexandera- then all Consorts ( with the exception of P.Phillip) would be covered! It might very well be Queen Anne, though. Edited February 7, 2022 by Germancruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Cunard decides to go for queens matrimonial rather than just queens regnant -- departing from long tradition - I would hope they would pick Eleanor - wife of the first Plantagenet, and formerly Queen of France ---- now, there was a classy lady.

So along with the Queen Anne's, Queen Isabella's, Aquitania's, Mauritania's and King Jame's trademarks comes the Queen Elizabeth 2 one. It should be one of those and most likely the QE2 (only one that has a short shorthand trademark https://uspto.report/TM/88829250). I don't think Cunard is going to simultaneously have a Queen Elizabeth and a Queen Elizabeth 2. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might very well be Queen Anne, though. No way will Cunard go for Camilla [it doesn't 'ring correctly' for starters] even though she will make a very supportive Queen Consort. I suggested Alexandra way back and still think it 'sits well' having four syllables. We will find out tomorrow, but the bets seem to be on 'Anne'.

Rare Germancruiser Posted February 7, 2022 #157 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I agree, she will make a supportive Consort. So you are too were in favor for Queen Alexandera. I thought I am the only one. Since the British Royal Family is more German then anything else it is only aptly that I give in my two cents . LOL.

SummmerInKefalonia Posted February 7, 2022 #159 Share Posted February 7, 2022 (edited) Here is the list of trademarks for possible names for the new ship: https://uspto.report/company/Carnival-P-L-C Queen Elizabeth 2 may be the latest entry, but Aquitania has a registration number already compared to the others (that green number you see on the list-current ship trademarked names have this too).

majortom10 Posted February 7, 2022 #161 Share Posted February 7, 2022 Still have my money on Queen Anne and think they will have Prince William, Princess Catherine or I really hope not Camilla. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Norwegian Viva and Celebrity Ascent's situations these actually came as accurate. I think it's between those 3: QE2, Queen Anne and Aquitania.

alc13 Posted February 7, 2022 #163 Share Posted February 7, 2022 I vote for Aquitania! It has an elegant and also traditional sound, as well as a venerable history. QE2 is too easily confused with QE (although I would love a nod to the current regent). Queen Anne just sounds dull. And that's coming from someone named Anne. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the reasons I'm hoping for that name. I love all the A&R films, but if pressed, I'd choose "Shall We Dance" as my favorite. Several of my favorite films have ocean liners in them. (Like Now Voyager, not Titanic) I'm surprised that they're holding the name Queen Isabella. Aside from being Henry VIII's first mother-in-law, what's the connection with British history?

Rare 3rdGenCunarder Posted February 7, 2022 #169 Share Posted February 7, 2022 If they do call the new ship Queen Anne, they should ask Princess Anne to christen it. Think how that will confuse people! 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love it! My first vote is MAURETANIA and then AQUITANIA. I would love either name, but odds are it will be Queen Anne. Yawn. I wish Cunard would get away from the "queen" names. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If my knowledge is correct dont think there has ever been historically, I might be wrong, a Queen Camilla and they wont name a ship after somebody that doesnt exist or might never ever exist.

Rare MylesS Posted February 8, 2022 #174 Share Posted February 8, 2022 (I'm unaware if this counts as advertising, so I apologise if so!)
