That is the Eisenhower. I'm just surprised that someone didn't think of numbering Enterprise as CVN 65A.

I think choosing a five star as a namesake is borderline, but probably OK.

Washington and Lincoln? I suppose. TR? I don’t know. JFK? childish hero worship. FDR and Truman? Probably not OK. If you have to have Presidents, I’d require dead a century, and start with Jefferson, Monroe, Madison, and Jackson
