If it's both "inside," and "outside" ...
Of course there are a lot of different things too, but first there's its body, isn't it?

Well... if it can talk, I was thinking maybe it has some ideas. But even so, should we give it a name first? And maybe pick some pronouns? It would be nice to be able to talk to it while we work, I think. You never know.

There are a lot of different kinds of humans. Some humans are smart and clever and make plans, some humans are protective and fierce and loyal, some humans are sensitive and kind and giving. I thought perhaps you'd have some thoughts.
We can make you into anything, it seems like. Maybe you'd like to be the type of human that we have in our unit? [ cute girls with serious problems seems to be the common thread ]

All right. On our unit we tend to be very passionate about things that are important to us [ lol ] and we can get protective sometimes, and our activities are corruption and monologues and staging deaths, so you should probably be very dramatic and persuasive. Maybe able to use some weapons because that's my specialty. And you'll be a girl, because we all are now.
I'll bet Dia can give you a great name, she's really good at that. Would you like a name?

... Mm, you're right. And, besides that too - ...
Of course it was my idea to begin with that body, but it's much more complex than that too, isn't it? Even if it's something common for many of them to share, there are humans without those sorts of bodies - and even those who have them that couldn't consider themselves in that way, aren't there?
[ glancing around the room a bit, though ]
Well - ... while we speak to them and think about names, why don't I look for other clues?

Well, she said that she'd like to be the sort of person that we have on our unit. I think that makes sense, right? So we could optimize her for our unit activities corruption and monologues and staging deaths, make her very outgoing and persuasive and all that.
I like the idea of making her as one of us.

I think it would. Every human I've ever met has a name of their own, rather than a designation. We're all named by our unitmates, so it makes sense for you to have one. It makes everyone feel more familiar, and that's a very human thing called bonding.
I think that - ... something like Clematis might be nice...
[ there's a pause though, as she tinkers with the anatomical model ]
But, Aliza - if we're here together, then you should be sure to give her a name too, you know? It isn't something that's only to be done by me, is it...?

Mm, but - it's a name that was given to that girl by you, so don't you think that she'll love it?
Dia and I each picked a name for you, which is how we do things on our unit -- oh. That's Aradia over there, you can call her that or Dia like I do, if you want to. And I'm Alizarin, but please call me Aliza.
Your name is Clematis Navire. I hope you like it!
