You might be thinking of the fictional ship the Titan. A book by Morgan Robertson written several years before the sinking of the Titanic described events in some ways remarkably similar to that real life event. The coincidence of the names of the fictional and real ships makes it even more spooky.

There are several Titans that refer to ships. One was a Navy Stalwart Class ship, number AGOS-15. It may still be in service today.
The other is in Star Trek and the other is a class of rockets used by NASA in the early 60's.

Well, there was a navy ship Agos-15 called the USS Titan.
And there was a class of submaries called Titan series.
It was also the name of the ship in the movie Titan A.E.

No, you must mean the Titanic. I never heard of a ship called
the Titan. That was a fictitious ship in Morgan Robertson's book.
It was not real. There are several links online about the Titanic,
if that helps.

KA‘IMIMOANA, Hawaiian for Ocean Seeker, was originally built as the U.S. Naval Ship TITAN (T-AGOS 15) in 1989 by Halter Marine in Moss Point, Mississippi. TITAN was operated by the Military Sealift Command (MSC) as an Ocean Surveillance Ship until her transfer to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) on August 31, 1993.
Conversion to her present configuration began in May, 1995 at Maritime Contractors, Inc Shipyard in Bellingham, Washington, and she was redelivered to NOAA as KA‘IMIMOANA in April 1996. The vessel is operated by NOAA's Office of Marine and Aviation Operations. (OMAO) and is homeported in Honolulu, Hawaii.

That was the name of the ship in a old book called "Futility", which told of a maiden voyage of an unsinkable ship. The ship, of course, sank. It was written years before the Titanic sunk.
