There was a USS Louisiana in World War One. Built in 1906, decommissioned in 1920. Hull number BB-19. "BB" indicates it was a battleship.

The US Navy had plans to build a class of massive battleships, which would have dwarfed the Iowa Class ships which were the last ones the US ever built. The proposed battleships were to be the Montana class, and one of them would have been the USS Louisiana (BB-71). All the Montanas were canceled before they were begun, when World War Two ended.

There is a ballistic missile nuclear submarine of the Ohio class currently in service as the USS Louisiana, (SSBN-743).
