Named Michael no less. I really think they had some old script where originally the main character was supposed to be a male and they just dusted it off, shrugged their shoulders and recast the part as a female.
Original STD showrunner (and gay man), Bryan Fuller, worked on some great episodes of DS9 and Voyager. He also has a weird thing for giving female characters male names. Shrug.
