A number of ships of the Royal Danish Navy have carried the name Elefanten, or Elephanten. The modern translation of the English word "Elephant" in Danish-English dictionaries is "Elefant". The suffix -en is the definite article in Danish.

All the following except Elephanten (1703) are listed at The Royal Danish Naval Museum's Skibregister: most but not all have record cards on line at this register. The four ships-of-the-line launched between 1684 and 1773 are spelt Elephanten in the Royal Danish Naval Museum's List of Ships.
