I know that the B-17F was named the "Memphis Belle". But does anyone
knows how many planes that were named Memphis Belle? Because I just
purchased some decals of a B-1B of that name. Was there any aircraft
named this?

Yes, I've seen pictures of a B-1B with the name.
I've also see a Vietnam Era F-105 with the name Memphis Belle 2.
I doubt there is any way of knowing for sure how many aircraft have carried
this famous name. Probably dozens since WW2.

When we were stationed in Blytheville, Arkansas, 1965-1967, the mayor of
Memphis came up to christen a B-52 the
"Memphis Belle II"

There is a fine line between "Hobby" and "Mental Illness."
