Hmmm Interesting... I read about it in "A Night to Remember".

I didn't think they made up the name "Titan" to make money. But even if they didn't and the name was Titan, it would be stupid to even consider that it means something... It was just a coincidence.

The word "Titan" Means big. Which is why they named the Titanic the Titanic. Back then, people's interest was on how big they could get machinery. The bigger, the better. The Titanic was the biggest ship in the world and pushed it as one.

It isn't out of the question that a young writer had a vision of people marketing a huge ship as a huge ship, and then sinking it.

It's the reason the story of Titanic is so fascinating, because it's like it came right out of a book, but nope, it really happened the way it did.
