Quote #10
"My dearest one, it is not proper for men to be without names. There was a time when each man had a name of his own to distinguish him from all other men. So let us choose our names." (12.6)
Equality 7-2521 wants to find new names for himself and Liberty 5-3000, names that will distinguish them as individuals. This is the last step in arriving at an identity as individuals. Because they're doing this together, it also shows the way in which their identities as individuals are connected to their love for each other. (It's also interesting to note that Equality 7-2521 chooses Liberty 5-3000's name…she doesn't choose her own.)
