She is dedicated to the Queen thru all these days. I have thought the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Germancruiser Posted September 17, 2022 #52 Share Posted September 17, 2022 (edited) It is either Princess Anne or the Queen Consort who will name the new Cunarder. There have been discussions about the name of the new ship. Some mentioned that if the Queen passes before the ship is ready to sail- it may be called Queen Camilla- since both the original Queen Mary and Queen Elisabeth were named after Queen Consorts. Both royal Ladys would deserve to stand as namesake for the new ship. Edited September 17, 2022 by Germancruiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As an aside, people were very fond of the Queen Mother, Elizabeth, so would have welcomed the naming of a ship after her. Anne, the Princess Royal is very well respected. Camilla, Queen Consort may one day earn that respect and fondness but is rather 'new to the job', wouldn't you say? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
