Hi guys!
What's the deal with the Japanese names of the ships (like Ryuun Maru, Taikosan Maru etc.)? Personally I don't like it, and I was wondering on your opinions on it and if someone had a list of the original names to replace. I can't recognize a ship from these names.

How did captains know the name of the ship they were sinking?
