(asking broadly) Is there another context for naming a ship "Laboon?" I can't find anything else other than One Piece and US ship. Very cringe for warships to be named after anime characters.

She is named for Father John Francis Laboon (1921–1988), a captain in the Chaplain Corps of the United States Navy, who was awarded the Silver Star during World War II while serving on the submarine USS Peto.

It's named after a ww2 priest/submarine captain
