Yes, sorry! In retrospect I realize it looks a little strange.

In the Aeneid, there are some ships which get turned into (female) sea-nymphs by the power of a goddess. The only one given a name is Cymodocea. But there's also a one-line mention earlier of a sea-nymph Cymodocea who is probably a different person, and I wanted to clarify that I was talking about the sea-nymph who was formerly a ship. Uh, does that help? I can find the relevant passages if necessary. And I'm fine with changing the phrasing if there's something that would be clearer.
