What Wulfen said. Drake sounds lice though.

Agincourt would be an iconic name.
Named after the battle in which a vastly outnumbered English Longbow force managed to defeat four times their number of French cavalry, this would be a moral booster for the embattled Bretonians who currently find their home world under siege from the vast Gallic fleets.

Edit: I just checked the meanings of those names above and I saw next picture:
Agincourt - French Commune
Fortitude - British TV serial
Thunderer - Serbian
Are you serious Devs? Why not Cromwell or Matilda? Ever Churrchill seems better than French Commune.
Edit #2: The naming MUST show the strength of Army, but not the TV serial despite the meaning of this word.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Fortitude_(1780)
All are historical names for British warships, Agincourt specifically would fit in the naming scheme of the Crecy and Dunkirk being major British victories.

Cromwell was an asshole
RE: [Name Vote] Bretonia Battlecruiser - Tenacity - 12-07-2018
I change my vote, after The Flame Touched's description of its origin I think that's a much better name for a new ship designed to rally the bretonian fleet and push those forsaken frenchies back to the sol they came from.

Indefatigable.

Agincourt is the Gallic name for Leeds. I guess Bretonia don't want to name its new Ship after something the Gallics use for a Bretonian System.

Agreed with Lyth. Cromwell created the state which was pretty much today's North Korea in terms of invigilation, lack of privacy and outright regime. And that's not a joke.
I don't think we want a ship named after British version of Kim Ir-Sen.

Cromwell is a very controversial historical figure, though even the British themselves named a war machine after him. Just saying.

Isn't Agincourt the project name of the Bretonian carrier already ?
"Project Agincourt", from Bowex) and BMM- back when they roleplayed the construction of the carrier that was parked in Southampton.
It was years ago, but it would be wierd to have 2 different capital ship classes with the same name
