I’m torn with submarine names for the MX-SSB class, a real proposed design that I’m using in All Union


(Bottom picture made in Stable Diffusion from the outline of the sub above)
The problems are:
- The class is large at circa 50 boats, so the naming scheme needs to support such a large class.
- There is no historical precedent since the US never used diesel missile subs, much less in large numbers.
- Both fish and people just don’t seem right to me (subjective I know)
I’m leaning towards lakes (ie, the Lake Tahoe class with some/all of the Great Lakes thrown in), but am wondering if there’s something that just can click. Thoughts?
There are plenty of fish names available from WW2 boats, as it should be, being a diesel.
