Talk:HMS Queen Elizabeth (CVF)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Does the name of this vessel refer to Queen Elizabeth I or Queen Elizabeth II? If there is any verification of this question, it should be included in the article.
- I presmume it is going to be named in honour of Elizabeth II, since it is due to be launched for her diamond jubilee, but it will not have the name QE2, since the connotations with the passenger ship. Rob.derosa 03:57, 6 August 2006 (UTC)
It refers to Queen Elizabeth I firstly because there was a Battleships named HMS Queen Elizabeth and secondly because The Queen Elizabeth II was a Passenger ship (QEII)

- The Cunard liner was named the Queen Elizabeth 2, and was not named after the present monarch, otherwise they would use the Roman numerals. Check the entry for the liner if you don't believe me. Douglasnicol 20:56, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
- This article (and the others like it) shouldn't be in an encyclopedia. It's a guess about something that doesn't exist. Wiki-Ed 12:08, 26 July 2005 (UTC)

- It's generally known that these will be the names of the carriers - the MOD uses the names HMS Queen Elizabeth and HMS Prince of Wales in its official videos
