What if the US navy aircraft carrier had not been named after presidents and senators ( Eisenhower - Carl Vinson -Theodore Roosevelt - Abraham Lincoln -George Washington - John C. Stennis - Harry S. Truman -Ronald Reagan -George H. W. Bush -Gerald R. Ford -John F. Kennedy -), but after past battles, or famous US naval officers?
Navy Officers: Spruance, Halsey, Fletcher, Thach, Kinkaid...
Battles: Leyte Gulf, Midway, Coral Sea...
Some of them had already been used to name non-nuclear Carriers and destroyers, but could they be used to name nuclear carriers?
