That being the case it would kind of narrow it down to Molly Brown or possibly Filthy Whore on quick scan of the options.
How about [coughs modestly] "Psyche" ("Soul")? She was the heroine of Apuleius' famous allegory of Cupid and Psyche...

Ahoy, Cap'in! You've got a few clear front-runners now:

Freudian Ship
Pinwheel
Wait... What?
Ship Happens
The Blue One

Are you going to pick a winner? Or are you going to repost a more limited list into a new run-off poll? Or are you gonna wait around for some Green Mod Fairie to come and do a Chicago on this one?

I have always favored "<expletive deleted>"

Leaves the actual name up to the filthy mind of the observer.
