TheWoWDBI have slain thousands of foes, traveled through ruined worlds and shattered timelines, run roughshod over gods and demons, seen the world cracked asunder twice and yet nothing has given me such pause as what to name this ship.

I would say Tiffin's Melody.
Tiffin was the mother of Anduin and she helped Varian with his anger issues. It would be an honor to deliver a ship that Andruin ordered to be built named of his lost mother.
At first I was leaning towards The Lionheart because it felt like a proper Alliance Vessel but considering Anduin's gentle approach to things I would rather stick with the Tiffin's Melody.
Anduin's Wrath feels kinda pointless for a ship to Anduin. It would be a fitting a name for a ship for Varian rather than to Anduin.
Dawnsailor doesnt ring good in my opinion.
I wanted to name it Boaty McBoatface!

Description
Dorian certainly lives up to her reputation, {name}. This magnificent vessel is complete and now it has a crew. Two pieces remain. First, we must give the ship a name. Then it falls to Brother Pike to bless this vessel. As is tradition, a tidesage's blessing fortifies the ship against storms and encourages fair weather and smooth seas. It is as much ceremonial as it is practical. Once that is done, we will set sail for Stormwind.

If Dorian really can build this ship before the day is out, we need to find a crew for the new vessel. This crew should represent the best of Kul Tiran society, the highest naval prowess, and the faith of our people as we present this gift to Anduin.
