The -F was being decommissioned, so they were probably already drawing up the plans for a -G.
I wonder what it was going to be before the Titan saved the day.

I've seen some people say, well it was the crew of the Enterprise D that saved the day, not just Picard. Which is fair but I'm still inclined to agree with you, USS Picard fits better.
Yes. Which pretty much negated the need for the Titan-A to be renamed the Enterprise-G.
They just helped save the day.
That day was a year ago.
Starfleet is always building ships. Certainly one of them could have been 1701-_.
Eta: why not simplify: every ship is Enterprise 1701-some letter, and they can switch to multiple letters after they get to Z.

Initially while watching the Episode, I really felt like it was an honour to the Titan to be renamed Enterprise, but I quickly realized that it can also be viewed as a slight.
After reading the reports that the Titan was initially supposed to be renamed the Picard, in retrospect, yes at the time when they filmed the "names are everything" line, she likely was the Picard.
I mean Picard certainly deserves to have a ship named after him, but there are also others. You could have named her the La Forge, since without Geordi spending 20 years to restore the Enterprise-D, the day would have been lost. Or the U.S.S. Spacedock (or whomever the CEO is) since they were holding the line for..... what, several hours?

How about this: LaForge restores the D until it can be brought back into service.
I think Picard would do as well. They can even just call it season 4!
Ships usually aren't named after people who are still living. Although, I guess in Picard's case he is technically dead.
