  1.  @alexmoskowitz811  the USN did have a naming convention, initially. Carriers were named after previous ships, or battles, a convention carried over from the Lexington class battlecruisers. When I was on the Lexington, CVT-16, there was a mural on one of the bulkheads in the hangar, of all the preceding USN ships named Lexington. If I recall correctly, there were five preceding ships. That started to fall apart with the FDR, then Forrestal. Now, they all seem to be named after people, same as DDs.
