Some names I would consider are:
Eärendil - The Blessed, or The Mariner
Eärrámë - The westward ship of Tuor
Gúthwinë - Battle Friend
perhaps simply naming it The Flame of Anor

just a few of my picks. For me it kind of depends on what type of vassel. A sail ship, a yacht, a speed boat, a row boat, schooner!?

Hmm... I'd probably name my boat The Brandywine or Anduin.

I would call it something romantic like Anduin's Breath and maybe on the side around the rim you could write "Alive without breath, As cold as death;Never thirsty, ever drinking,all in mail never clinking."

How about Valinor or The Heart of Lorien. That would be fun. Eru I wish I had a boat.

I'm with you Halbarad, I think Eärendil is perfect! Or better yet, what's the name of one of Eärendil's ships?

Wasn't his ship 'Vingilot' or something like that? It had another name too...

Vingilot is a cool name.

Nothing unfortunate happened to Eärendil right? For a while I thought the line "of him the harpers sadly sing" was about him, but it's about Gil-Galad isn't it.

Yes - Gil-galad... used to rhyme with,

'Gil-galad was an Elven King,' - wasn't it?

How about just Cirya? It's a pretty word and it fits. And it would be cool to have a ship with a name in Quenya

Not the hobbit...
How about gollem?
Or the elf boat?
Or orcs bane?
Or the bannana boat?(Not LotR but if I started a thread for non-tolken boat names it would be merged with this)
Or sam?
Or ?
Or gandalf?
Or... I've run out of ideas...

Tuor named his Allumicraft fishing boat "Steve", after his pet name for his pet. I think I would name a boat Stevie, and say it was a womans name, or something.

I'd name mine Alatar since he's a blue wizard.
