Currently reading Perhaps The Stars (Terra Ignota), and just clicked that the Utopians calling JEDD "Mike" probably has a double meaning.
The explicit one is "Micromegas" which is both appropriate for JEDD and would please Madame, who is extremely horny for Voltaire.
But given that Utopia has it's capital on Luna City and that they're a bunch of SFF nerds, "Mike" could also refer to Mike (aka Mycroft Holmes) from The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, the friendly supercomputer who is instrumental in achieving Luna's independence from Earth.
It makes sense because Utopia hopes that Mike will free them from Earth's complacent grasp, like his silicon namesake.
