It's a secret squid code they don't teach to zoomies, obviously, because I've never figured out ships numbers.

What’s CVN-65 stand for? "CV" is the designator for aircraft carrier, "N" designates nuclear powered, "65" indicates it was the 65th CV ordered.

“C” means aircraft carrier, “V” indicates fixed wing and “N” stands for nuclear powered. So CVN means (in Navy-speak) “aircraft carrier, fixed wing, nuclear powered”.
the Enterprise is the 65th fleet carrier.
so, CVN-65

CVN stands for Aircraft Carrier Nuclear (powered). The number shows it was the 65th Carrier built.
The next carrier to be built is CVN-78, the USS Gerald R. Ford.
