Nick Locarno was a name Tom Paris went by for a while to distance himself from his father, Admiral Paris. I don’t care what Lower Decks had to say about it.

Data always had emotions, he just didn’t understand them. Lore never had emotions, he was desperately faking it.

Spot was a robot who underwent a series of upgrades throughout the series, and Data applied the lessons he learned from that to the development of his daughter.
