Without Google, I'm going to go with Nimrod, as that is another name they use on a Port.

Who was Warrior?
I did Google, and If I understand the page properly, Warrior was actually the name of Captain Warre's horse.

Yes, in theory the horse which is what's on the new label too, is Captain Warre's horse. But the real warrior was he. So you are correct in a literal sense.
