    Personally, I would have liked it better if they were all just 'Borg'. But then the concept of the Borg seemed to get worse with each new Borg episode.

        No way, then we wouldn't have had FC.

          I'm sure they don't care for the movies, Rube.

            Why was Picard Loqutus and not 9 of 10 or some other "combination?" It seems that he was special but all the members of the collective are supposed to be equal.

              Maybe, since Picard was chosen by the Borg to speak to humanity, humanity would feel more comfortable with a more "traditional" name, rather than a Borg designation?
              Why are you here if you haven't seen the movie yet?

                They could have had Picard be 1 of 8657321779453217.
                we need more diversity in sports. Where are the short, fat Asians!

                  I think this was done rather well in light of Picard's assimilation as Locutus. With Locutus having a name, they needed to show how drones are designated, so that Locutus was more important to the Collective.

                    Certainly. Couldn't have Picard as just 1 of 562.

                      FC was the best of TNG movies, but the concept of the Borg had drastically changed by then.
                      But in the series, once you're past BOBW, you get I Borg and Descent. Ick.

                          What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.
                          At least the Borg names are easy to remember, you should walk around with the tongue-twister I have for a last name. It's Italian.
                          Spenser with an "S", like the poet.

                            The Enterprise should have used the virus from 'The Naked Now' on the Borg. Could you imagine a cube full of drunken Borg?

                                It really wouldn't make any sense for them to refer to each other by the same name. Each would have a singular purpose to provide the collective and be named thusly.

                                  Names are easy. Kevin Borg, Timmy Borg. Simple enough.

                                    I know I wouldn't have a choice, but If I were a Borg and
                                    could
                                    choose my designation, I'd pick the most badass Borg name ever. The obvious choice would be 1. But I think the queen would be one, right? Or is her designation just "queen"? IDK
                                    Anyhow, if 1 was taken I'd go with something else cool like 13. Or 21. I've always liked that number. 100's good. Nice round, even number. Maybe 88? Something about the symmetry of the eights.
                                    Number Six: Who are you?
                                    Number Two: The new Number Two.
                                    Number Six: Who is Number One?
                                    Number Two: You are Number Six.
                                    Number Six: I am not a number! I am a free man!
                                    Number Two: [laughs]
