Jammy Dodger
Explanation:
è il nome di una barca [oltre a essere un sacco di altre cose], guarda qui:

"A week later at the IRC Nationals on the Solent, Jammy Dodger, owned and helmed by Neil Martin, sailed a fantastic regatta finishing fourth overall in IRC Zero. This was a superb achievement for Neil and his team, especially considering the fact the three boats in front of him were all brand new custom built IRC boats being raced by professional teams."

Explanation:
Another possibility. But in any case, it's not translated:
“Flushed Away” is a madcap comedy set on and beneath the streets of London. Roddy is a decidedly upper-crust “society mouse” who lives the life of a beloved pet in a posh Kensington flat. When a sewer rat named Syd comes spewing out of the sink and decides he’s hit the jackpot, Roddy schemes to rid himself of the pest by luring him into the “whirlpool.” Syd may be an ignorant slob, but he’s no fool, so it is Roddy who winds up being flushed away into the bustling sewer world of Ratropolis. There Roddy meets Rita, an enterprising scavenger who works the sewers in her faithful boat, the Jammy Dodger.
