But Kovacs Prime is what Netflix uses for their subtitles as well, so I\'m inclined to go with that just for clarity\'s sake, rather than a sort of ComicBookMoviesDontUseCodenames name that\'s not going to be familiar to viewers who haven\'t read the books. But I\'m open to being convinced otherwise.

I\'m thinking the original intent was something along the lines of prime as in the symbol [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_%28symbol%29]? I am not a mathematician, by any means, and I think maybe the intent got lost in translation at some point. But as opposed to Kovacs, Kovacs-Prime, Kovacs-Prime-II, -III, etc, I\'m guessing the idea was that it would be more along the lines of Kovacs our hero, Kovacs-prime the first copy, Kovacs-double-prime, Kovacs-triple-prime, etc. But I could be way off. Again, totally not my area.
