OK,
Keeping the same theme, an IOW Ferry with an unusual name.
Edit,It was named after someone famous at the time.
Edit, Hi WM, it was built in 1936, was named after a singer, (all the rest were named after royalty or places in the Solent), and sank on May 30th 1940.

I found there were a lot of paddle ferries that looked like that one, each with (un)usual name in it's own way.

So it's not this one then?
RMS Ausonia, launched in 1921, was one of Cunard's six post-World War I "A-class" ocean liners for the Canadian service.
Sorry I made the last one so obvious, I live in 'Technical Support' most of the time. I'm not used to people doing their own research.  ;)

No one answered my question. it was Titanic (1912), Empress of Ireland (1914), RMS Lusitania (1915), and HMHS Britannic (1916). Everyone should have known that :-\ but never answered.
