You should keep the real names , but add ability to change them as an option. Back then people named their ships the way they wanted, so why we can't name them the way we want them these days? In addition, if you want to add sail, flag, figurehead, cannons customization, this will not be the same looking ship anymore and will require a new name))) SO, its up to a player to decide if he wants to stay classic of go create a new looking ship with a new legendary name..!! In case someone names their ship XXPwnmasterXX, well this will only be visible if you get close to a ships stern and/or use a spy glass to read it. Ship name should not be stated in a ship info window (spyglass feature). I do not see a big issue here...
