Vista sister ship name..

[loubetti]

That hasn't stopped any Cruise line from repeating names before and I'm pretty sure we'll see it again. Such as:

 

Liberty

Freedom

Jewel

Pride

Legend

 

 

True, but can we not be original? :)

 

During its 175+ year history, Cunard Line had 2 ships named "Mauretania", and 3 named "Caronia".

 

Today we name ships based on marketing.

 

How about we go back in time.

 

What about "Olympia", or "Oceanic". Both were great ships, and 7 letters and no "Z"?

 

Also, "Olympic". Of course, as she was the only one of the White Star trio to survive, perhaps we should retire her name, just as we should "Normandie".

 

I never understood why "Destiny", despite the major refit was given the silly name "Sunshine". Destiny was a MAJOR milestone for ships in 1996. The largest pax vessel ever built since Queen Elizabeth of 1940. Just name her Destiny II. Ah, yes, marketing again!

As much as I like Vision, I like Destiny!:D

 

Why the heck did they throw out a great name for a silly one?:confused:

[kybluecruiser]

Sunrise was going to be my guess.

 

 

 

Carnival trademarked Sunrise awhile ago. Many assumed it would be the sister ship to Sunshine after Victory and/or Triumph got "Sunshine'd" but those plans were scrapped. Wouldn't be surprised to see it end up as Vista's sister.

 

 

 

I don't really care for the name though, just like I don't care for the name Sunshine.

 

 

Kind of like inspiration and imagination I always get those two mixed up lol

Not sure if anyone picked this or not but what about Voyager? And that's Voyager and not Voyager of the Seas, Lou:-)

Sista Vista

WalMart. Ooops. Taken

 

How about SeaView. Fits with 7 letters and is a synonym for Vista.

Empress

Riviera

Veranda

Harmony

 

Really like Carnival Empress!

I think Titanic is still available [emoji3]. Not that I'd sail on it... too bad they said no z, I liked Horizon.

I'm betting on Journey or the NEW Destiny :)

Bump, added a poll

[Keys2Heaven]

I really like Journey.

 

Don't want another Destiny. Guess some shipyard workers thought that she was cursed after breaking free from her moorings. Wonder if that's why she was renamed.

if you want an old ship name, how about 'titanic' then. 7 letters and no z and what name could be more famous. ;)

 

that being said i like 'journey' the best of the ones offered in the poll.

so it can come back and attack us :eek: .......think first start trek movie......

Yeah, but they'll name it a stately name in the end...

[kybluecruiser]

I think we may get her name this week. This weeks cruise on the vista has media members sailing. They announced vista's name on a similar cruise on sunshine.

[firemanbobswife]

I kind of like Journey but I hope it's not that. I think it will confuse things between the ship Journey, the longer throwback Journey cruises, and possibly the cruises where they have Journey the band play. I hate when a company constantly uses the same name for various things within their brand.

[CruzCrazy]

The comment about bands got me to thinking. How about "Nirvana"? That's 7 letters and no Z.

 

Although I'm not sure how well "Carnival Nirvana" rolls off the tongue...
