Spock’s Full Name Revealed on 'Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' Poster

The premiere of Star Trek: Strange New Worlds is just around the corner, and with fans flocking to the Star Trek convention Mission Chicago this weekend, we're getting some exciting news about the upcoming prequel series. Strange New Worlds has already been delighting fans with references and Easter eggs from The Original Series and other Star Trek properties and today's news follows that trend.

COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY Long-time fans of the franchise — and its extended works — may recognize M'Benga's full name because this isn't the first time it's been used in a Star Trek property. Star Trek has a massive catalog of spin-off novels, and in the novel series Star Trek: Vanguard M'Benga plays a significant role. We learn his first name is Jabilo in the first book of that series, Harbinger which was published in 2005.

Especially well-versed fans will also recognize Spock's newly canonized first name. The beloved Vulcan's full name is officially S'Chn T'Gai Spock. The name actually comes from a popular fan work-turned novel for The Original Series in Barbara Hambly's Ishmael which was published in 1985. Star Trek: Discovery similarly cited fan works when they gave the planet Vulcan the name Ni'Var in Season 3 after traveling several hundred years into the future.

Star Trek: Strange New Worlds Season 1 begins on May 5 on Paramount+. Check out the new posters below!
