She nodded once then asked, almost tentatively, "Do you think I will be given a name?"

Becoming queen of a hive, even one without one to start with, was difficult. Rogue had everything she did not prior to coming aboard. She had the crew and commander's trust and respect for starters, and a positive reputation with Atlantis.

And she still had yet to prove herself worthy of the throne. Normally this was done by defending a territory or culling, or best yet, getting rid of an enemy. But all three of those would be out of her reach until after she took the gene therapy.

So, perhaps she hoped to have some sort of recognition that she was special until that time came. And a name was rather special. Not all the crew had one, and certainly no one outside this hive did.
