LOL ... I suppose she will!
I still think COSTA FORTUNA was a silly name to begin with. It sounds nice and I guess she did cost a fortune, but, well... It just doesn't sound serious!
I wonder if they realized what the name sounds like (in English) before they chose it?
Were the workers intoxicated by the fumes from the fire or were they intoxicated and caused the fire?
PS "Fortuna" means "luck" As in " I wish you good fortune". Not money . Though I do think that every time something breaks down on the ship there will surely be a pun made of her name. Why wouldn't they think of that when they chose the name? IMO they are just leaving themselves open for jokes and ridicule for as long as she sails.

Hmm, maybe they were on drugs, perhaps some (Carnival) Ecstasy.
