This made me smile as one of my "if I won the lottery" daydreams would be to have a harbour tug - I would name it Gallivant.

Probably "Forceful", "Samson", "Hercules" or "Lil Toot",

The worst tug names I ever came across were a pair called WyePush & WyePull. They used to work out of Southampton. Imagine a bad VHF channel:
"WyePull, can you push on"
"This is Wyepush, do you want us to pull?"

Disaster area. Clonked the boat many times

Cool tug names has to include "Hercules"
