If we managed to buy a diesel sub, what would we name it?

Hypothetical question: Say, a couple years ago I shorted a large quantity of a particular stock (even more interestingly, I didn't realize I did it at the time, new stock trader software, not familiar with it, etc

) and now I come into some serious $$...and I decide to act on my childhood fantasy and along with a Belgian venture capitalist, I buy a reasonably sea-worthy Type 209 diesel sub from Venezuela to refurbish as an ocean-going "cruise ship" for submarine enthusiasts.

Anyway, we cannot get it to port in the US but we have a nice little cove in Puerto Caldera... anyway-anyway... if all this actually was going to happen, what would be a good name for the sub?
