Boat Name - Your help needed

Just purchased my new rib, and I need a name for it. I'm appealling to those with better brain power than myself to suggest names. My last number of boats were called "Yorkshire Lass" and we feel its time to move on. As a Yorkshireman I would prefer something with a Yorkshire theme if possible...... so over to you clever people for suggestions.

PS Its blue tubes, white hull if that helps any

Jon

Jon if Tetley is no good you could have a look at some of the web sites that list loads of boat name options, good luck it's worse than thinking up kids names
