The RN had the practice of naming their destroyers with the letter of their class. The Glowworm you mention was of the G-class. Others in the class included: HMS Gallant, HMS Garland, HMS Gipsy, HMS Grafton, HMS Grenade, HMS Grenville, HMS Greyhound, HMS Griffin. It may be more practical than the US practice of various classes of destroyers/destroyer escorts for people.
The ship naming branch at the Admiralty may have had a few jokers, when you consider they named a ship Glowworm, but then consdier the entire Flower-class of corvettes.
