sweby Posted January 28, 2018 #1 Share Posted January 28, 2018 Hi all, I understand there will be another Cunard ship joining the fleet sometime in the next couple of years. Does anyone know what it will be called, are we running out of Queen's to name it after? Sweby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare BlueRiband Posted January 28, 2018 #2 Share Posted January 28, 2018 You might want to see this thread from last year when Cunard first made the announcement: What's in a name? (For Cunard's new ship) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest SilverHengroen Posted January 28, 2018 #3 Share Posted January 28, 2018 The thread BlueRiband provided gives our collective thoughts (consensus seems to be Queen Anne if you don’t want to read the whole thing) - but the official answer is no, we don’t officially know what it will be called yet. I wonder if we are in for a bit more info some time soon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tv24 Posted January 30, 2018 #4 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Queen Geraldine of Albania. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Owl Posted January 30, 2018 #5 Share Posted January 30, 2018 Could be Queen Camilla by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Germancruiser Posted January 31, 2018 #6 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Queen Camilla- I dout it- even though there would be nothing to say against it- one day she will be Queen Consort- but old Lilibeth is still fit and will carry on. My favorite would still be Queen Alexandra! ( Consort 1901 until 1910) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepperrn Posted January 31, 2018 #7 Share Posted January 31, 2018 Queen Berengaria is my choice. Quadruple winner! Name "Queen (something)", keeps the marketing men happy. She was a Queen consort, wife of Richard I. Revives a previous Cunard ship name, so lots of tradition. Finishes with an "ia", so keeps the Cunard purists pleased. :D (said in jest in case anyone thinks I was being serious :p ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToadOfToadHall Posted January 31, 2018 #8 Share Posted January 31, 2018 More likely to be "Queen Latifah - Sponsored By Costa Coffee" ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Germancruiser Posted February 2, 2018 #11 Share Posted February 2, 2018 The blind Queen- no prommenade deck as all the other Cunarder´s - just a walkway with a nice view of organge glowing lifeboats..! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egremont Posted February 2, 2018 #12 Share Posted February 2, 2018 I think if Cunard are branching out with a ship that isn't regarded as a proper Cunard ship it might as well be called Drag Queen. Or just be more generalistic with Queen Regnant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opinionator Posted February 4, 2018 #13 Share Posted February 4, 2018 Queen Jane (approximately..with a nod to Bob Dylan). Could be a '60's classic rock themed thing. There was a historical Queen Jane who reigned for just 9 days; better known as Lady Jane Grey, who met her end in the Tower of London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DYKWIA Posted February 5, 2018 #18 Share Posted February 5, 2018 Who was the ugliest Queen that you Brit's have had ? My choice. Anne of Cleaves and Caroline of Brunswick were reportedly quite plain looking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanjam cruisers Posted February 5, 2018 #19 Share Posted February 5, 2018 The name of the New Ship could very well be “Caronia” as this is a Cunard Name that has been used on previous Ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
21centurycunarder Posted September 26, 2018 #20 Share Posted September 26, 2018 I'm thinking it's going to be Queen Anne. If it were up to a vote, I'd throw my support behind Queen Berengaria for reasons already stated so well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jack E Dawson Posted September 26, 2018 #21 Share Posted September 26, 2018 Even though this is at least he third thread started on this subject, its still fun. I like Queen Anne whose nick-name was Brandy Nan for her love of fine French brandy. Cunard could have so much fun with that. Of course there would have to be a Brandy and Cognac bar, Nan's Brandy Stand??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDBINK1 Posted September 27, 2018 #22 Share Posted September 27, 2018 If they do Caronia for the name perhaps a Green Livery? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BklynBoy8 Posted September 27, 2018 #24 Share Posted September 27, 2018 I think lately they like to use a Queen's Name and keep the name short exc. for Elizabeth. We would like Queen Anne. Caronia's name is enjoying a well deserved retirement. She was a pleasure to have sailed on her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray66 Posted September 27, 2018 #25 Share Posted September 27, 2018 A while ago someone put the following link to new ships on order. 2022 is still showing Queen Anne for Cunard - bottom of page 12 http://www.amem.at/pdf/AMEM_Cruise-Ships-on-Order.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
