His voice cracked like chinaware hitting concrete. A unique whisper jumped over his lips in the time it took to inhale a gasp.
"....Kelsi."
She is the victorious ship, not the one who won the battle, but the one who survived the storms.
And may there always be something stronger inside to keep her going; not like that of a man-made motor built to pump out lies and false hope...But the love of someone far away and ever so close to keep her going.
He has eyes soft a clouds and she cries to feel the rain again. To feel the storm. to fight the waves. To remember what it feels like to always be victorious and dance in mid-morning showers.
Kelsi;; hand-picked, special, and uncommon. Strong, conquering, the victorious. Paint the wood beautiful, paint it in gold. Name this ship, or this father's child, Kelsi.
Kelsi Love.

Kelsi; a victorious ship
Or its more important meaning from the girl herself..."my name actually means a lot to me because my daddy picked it out. my mother wanted to name me piper [which is now my best friend's name] but my dad preferred an uncommon spelling of an uncommon name. and i miss my dad."
I'm sorry Kelsi...I meant to write something truly beautiful, deep, and meaningful for you....but I can't right now....I just....can't....I'm so sorry....
