It is interesting to note the wide variety of naming styles used for Stars to the Royal Navy. It is even more interesting to note that the same hand named the two Stars to Minotaur, of which three are known - a larger proportion than that of any other ship in the Royal Navy. It is just possible that all Stars to Minotaur were privately named in this fashion, but more evidence is required.
