The LST-271 was never given a formal name other than the USS LST-271. This wasn't uncommon with smaller vessels during WWII, such as LST's, PC's, PT's, etc.

Some ships that went unnamed that survived the war and scrapping were formally named later; however, the USS LST-271 wasn't one of them. She was decommissioned in April 1946, then scrapped 2 years later. She earned 5 Battle Stars during WWII.
