Logofont

I'm thinking about this font for the boat name. Mercedes is my nickname for Karen, and named after Edmond Dantes' fiancee in Count of Monte Cristo.  I'd like to evoke a kind of old European look.  This uses a gold gradient, thematically for the gold treasure that Edmond discovered on the island of Monte Cristo after he escaped from the Chateau D'If prison.  The ripples on the bottom of the letters remind me of water.  Any thoughts?


Update:  I just received a proof copy of the logofont graphic from the nice people at SignsSpecialists.com.  It includes the accents on the second and third "e", to be historically accurate!  This might distinguish Mercedes Dantes from the car company a little!  Here it is:
