The tradition of naming boats after women is thought to stem from the historical personification of ships as feminine figures, often seen as protectors of sailors. Additionally, many cultures have viewed the sea itself as a female entity, leading to a practice of naming vessels after women to invoke their grace and safety. This custom has persisted over time, contributing to the prevalence of female names in maritime nomenclature.
