My family has not been able to decide on a name for our boat. I had suggested just calling it "indecision" or "undecided" but my husband felt that sounded too "stupid". So I'm thinking that if it were in another language (and we're both pretty proud of our irish heritage) that if there were something like "undecided" in gaelic, it might make a good name. Does anyone know of a translation for undecided? Thanks

I think 'indecision' would be a bad name for a boat.

In any language
