A hot-rodded catamaran. Not purely blasted for maximum racing potential. Careful optimized, resculpted, painted, and tricked by one of the designers. Very "hot rod." A Deuce Coupe.

We saw a young couple on a nice 40+ sailboat in Mexico. It was called "Grateful Heir".
Another one (also with a young couple) was called "Dessert First".
A BIG trimaran had big fat red arrows on each ama pointing straight up and in red block letters on the transom it said,
"THIS SIDE UP".
Another multihull was called "Willyflippit".

Best name we've seen on a boat:
Steamy Windows
We were anchored next to it in Grenada, but never saw them on deck. Hmmm, wonder what they were up to?

I know a guy that didn't know what he wanted to name his boat, so but "TBD" on the documentation paperwork. He decided to stick with that.

The one fundamental rule that needs to be considered when naming a boat is whether the name is simple enough for use over VHF to non-native english speakers. If it causes confusion or embarassment it should be avoided.
