Name that Boat!
Hopefully everyone is enjoying Jessie's finale! While you all complete your playthroughs, we thought we'd get your input on a feature of the next chapter we're working on!
Without going into spoilers, I think it's fair to say that having a Nessie girlfriend would warrant a nice boat of your own to follow her out into the water.
With a maximum length of 6 letters (this is important for fitting!), what would you name this boat?
Let us know as many as you can think of in the comments or in Discord-- both serious and silly answers are welcome!

boat, mostly cause I can just imagine grace looking at malcom in disappointment
McBoat, short for Boaty McBoatface
Another one: Raudhr
Alpine. Thames.
Marion, Jessie, Owen, Rowan, Effie, Lilnap, Hazel, Ardail, Alana. Not because any of these are good ship names but I want to see Grace's reaction to them
Misnich (mischievous in Gaelic) or Nisie (Nessie in Gaelic)
Allure . Because it minces with Grace's beauty as she'd been changing; ever the more alluring (in Malcolm's mind). Also it connects with fish and 'lures' , AND because alluring can also mean coaxing one to follow, which is what Grace did with Malcolm to entice him to go with her in the water. Allure also sounds similar to Azure, which is a shade of Blue, which Grace also is :P
Mary
"The Cryptid"?
I am on the "Chaser" band wagon.
My Lady
Jerry.
chaser, or runner
"geoff"
Nymph
know its too long, but "Fae Winds" would be great
Don't know if we'll be able to choose from an array of names somehow, but would be neat as both silly and serious names comes to mind for me. Was thinking of Whirl as in whirlpool, or Pontar, as a sort of cameo of the river from the Witcher series. Maybe names based on the material it could be (or not) made of: Oak, Sprig, Foam, Willow, Cedar, Ash, Spruce, Lind, Timber, Linen, Rivet, Rondel and so on. Then there could be names Grace could whip up to to match her (or her sisters) overall mannerisms and activities: Ploy, Vex, Fraise, Lash, Scale, Mirth, Dash, Weal, Rush, Poise, Tryst, Flair, Gait, Prance, Pulp, Wallop, Swift, Oyster, Kelp, Runt. Lastly there could be more (possibly) traditional ship names, such as: Zephyr, Moment, Zeal, Glory, Yearn, Sworn, Melody, Flash, Pride, Toil, Zenith, Nadir, Reign and such.
plain as it may sound, why not just Nessie? think about malcolm boarding the Nessie to follow his Nessie girl. also kind of fits with the scottish mythos of the loch ness monster. Grace could be the inspiration
Ralth (eth symbol instead of th, phone doesn’t have the character)
Irnbru
Nessie
I hadn't seen your comment. But i agree
craig
Sexpot.
Pisces
Yes, this boat definitely needs a good name)) What about Trophy, Gemini or Escape?...
LYCAN
Ráith (Gaelic for season). From a line of the traditional song 'Fear a' Bhàta', sung by Capercaillie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5muVg_ZWek :)
Sonse, translates as "happiness", or "good fortune". Related is Sonsy, which means good health. Saor, which translates as "free".
Well since the ever, lovely Grace is a water dragon and Dragons are the traditional emblem of the Welsh peoples and keeping in the six, letter maximum may I suggest Caru ti " love you" Or Annwyl "beloved" at least according to google translate
Gorgeous-ness
Klaus
aigéan = ocean
Grace
Scylla
I like Castle, or Scottish Gaelic for freedom.
Vriska
The Salmon?
Boaty Mcboatface
Chum Bucket ;)
"Saorsa" which if google is right means freedom in Scottish Gaelic
I very much like Incog's idea of Castle
Kelpie
Tartan
Abyss
The LilNap The Paddle The (Empty) Helmet
Oakum: for all the Oakum used to patch the holes. Reefer: Old term for Pea Coat Mizzen: Because the mizzen mast sail was the only one Malcolm didn't have to replace. Castle: For it is their Castle upon the sea. Golden: For the time's ahead
SS Essess Argo Nautilus Aurora Advenna Avis Over the Rainbow
Plank. Bucket. Lochwood. I hope that whatever it is, it's about as seaworthy as a pool noodle.
The Gallus, I think it’s a Scottish term befitting of Grace’s personality, it means mischievous and bold, which is in my opinion very fitting
Kelpy
Siren
In honor of Hazel the horse, I shall christen this boat...Cobnut.
Jewel Mighty Horsey Lady The Gem Sunset Lumber Dukess Royal Haven SeaArk Fang S.Nest Orca Whale Coral Oasis Beacon
Moeity ("Two equal parts") Morven (from A'Mhorbhairne, "sea gap")
Balgai- d'oh
Tadger, the Scottish slang for penis. Grace wouldn't mind riding on it but she might be afraid of breaking it.
Destiny
If there wasn't a 6 letter restraint... Gracey McGraceface
Home S.S. Boat George
I mean, Nessie fits. >w<
Neriad
Family Squirt Fishy Love Booty Boaty
Yvaine ("evening star")
The Ooze, or maybe The Kraken
Gwynt, which looks vaguely celtic but means absolutely nothing.
Cridhe, which apparently means "heart". It will sound corny 😅, but where ever she goes, his "cridhe" will follow.
Maisie (Scottish version of "Margaret", meaning "pearl")
Grumpy would be a funny name XD
The Kelpie The Breeze
name the boat Jessie! XD
