.When you’re naming the 20 biggest container ships in the world, it’s important that each has a name to stand the test of time.

Our Triple-Es all have names beginning with the letter M with the first one named after Maersk’s former CEO and chairman Mæersk Mc-Kinney Møller.

We’ve now named 10 Triple-Es, but we’re yet to reveal the rest.

What would you name the remaining ones?

Mærsk Mc-Kinney Møller (delivered July 2013, in service)
Majestic Mærsk (delivered July 2013, in service)
Mary Mærsk (delivered August 2013, in service)
Marie Mærsk (delivered September 2013, in service)
Madison Mærsk (delivered July 2013, in service)
Magleby Mærsk (under construction)
Maribo Mærsk (under construction)

The class name for the vessels of ”Triple E” is derived from the three design principles: economy of scale, energy efficient and environmentally improved.
