Naming of Bungaree
I believe that the Bungaree was named after the town of Bungaree rather than person, although it would seem likely that the town was named after the person. This was the case for all the Corvettes which were all named after Australian towns. Strictly speaking the corvettes were mine sweepers but were used in many other roles. But given the fact that they were named after Australian towns would suggest that the Bungaree was also Neilsambhur (talk) 22:39, 10 April 2023 (UTC)
 * This was the name selected by the Adelaide Steamship Company. The RAN generally retained the names of civilian ships that entered its service during World War II, which explains most of the unusual names at List of ships of the Royal Australian Navy. The RAN's website also confirms that the ship was named after the person . Nick-D (talk) 10:53, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
