The Iowa has too many nicknames to list and most of them were all only for short periods of time.

Politically, her nickname is 'the Big Stick', but affectionately she's 'the Princess', 'the Lady', or 'Mistress I'. For obvious reasons (sexism being a large one), the Navy does not recognize these anymore.
