They named the Titanic ,Titanic because Titanic is a synonym for Enormous.

The Titanic was the largest ship that had been built up to that time.

The origin of the name Titanic came from the 'Titans,' who are powerful giants from Greek-Roman legends. The word 'Titanic' means,

  1. Having great stature or enormous strength; huge or colossal
  2. Of enormous scope, power, or influence.

This is a myth. The Titanic was not called "unsinkable" until after it sunk.
