Pirate
Names
Avast, ye mateys, if it be pirate names ye be looking
for then ye come to the right place. Pirate names are a dime a dozen,
so methinks I'll take a gross of them. Pirate names date back to
the 1600s when Black Bart, Blackbeard and Calico Jack were reigning
over the high seas.
Many times pirate names were picked to instill fear on
the high seas or establish a reputation or given as a nickname
by the crew. This is especially true in fictional works
where the likes of Captain Hook, Captain Blood or Long John
Silver are popular pirate names recognizable to most.
And, then we have the female pirate names to worry about.
Back in the day, when yer great, great, great grandfather
was but a scallywag and landlubber in port, the likes of
Anne Bonny and Mary Read were reigning terror over the seven
seas.

The female pirates got themselves a bad reputation for fierce fighting,
out battling the men on the ships.
But, the most famous pirate names come from the most famous pirate
who terrorized the ports and waters in the Caribbean. Captains such
as William Kidd, Jack Rackam, George Booth, Nathaniel Butler, Edward
England and Redbeard are some of the most familiar pirate names
to those familiar with the buccaneers of old.
So, if ye wants to walk like a pirate and talk like a pirate, then
ye better get familiar with pirate names lest ye be flogged by a
cat o' nine tails by those who do. Remember, me scallywag friend,
if ye don't know something just look real mean and growl to your
landlubber friend "Arrrrrgh!" and they will leave you
alone.
