According to wikipedia "Pre-dreadnoughts replaced the ironclad battleships of the 1870s and 1880s". Ironclad battleship sounds like a different kind of ship, more or less the same as ironclads (I guess you can use both Ironclad Battleship or Ironclad for the same ship). While I know that at the time Pre-Dreadnoughts weren't called Pre-Dreadnoughts, I guess they were simply called battleships and not ironclads anymore. But to tell the truth, I don't have other names to suggest if we want to change it.
There are a lot of different kinds of steam warships, and I wanted a name that didn't clash with any other ship and fit the era. Think of it as compressing the ironclad battleship with the pre-dreadnought. We shouldn't be trying to cover every possible ship that was included in that era (although I think we can get in one cruiser-class ship that doesn't need Artillery technology).
The regular Ironclad that we have is a coastal-defense ship. I like that one's imagery and role enough to keep it -- it's the first combat steam ship, so it should probably be a little limited.
