Actually I don't think ANY ships are named after women. For centuries many
cultures considered it bad luck to have a female on board.

Mr. Brick,
    If all boats are named after women, when did John F. Kennedy become a
female? Isn't there an aircraft carrier named the USS John F. Kennedy?
Causing trouble again....
