Names for Navy ships traditionally have been chosen and announced by the Secretary of the Navy. Congress in recent years has proposed, and sometimes passed, legislation regarding the naming of specific ships. This report will be updated when events warrant. The report answers the following questions: Who Names Navy Ships, What Is the Navy's Process for Selecting Names, Are There Naming Rules for Ship Types, Can Ships Be Named for Living Persons, What Is the Public's Role in Naming Ships, What Is Congress's Role in Naming Ships, and What Past Legislation Has There Been on the Issue.
