Boat names can be as simple or as complex as you want them to be. Some people name their boat after the person who owns it, while others choose something more personal.
Some people even name their boat after a beloved pet or family member. And some people get creative with their boat names!
Here are some clever boat names if you’re looking for inspiration on what to name your boat.
The most clever boat names are the ones that make you laugh.
Boat names like “Moon Pie” and “Bigger Boat” can be clever (and they’re certainly more fun than a name like “Moby Dick”). Still, they don’t inspire the same smile-inducing awe as other entries on this list.
