So there will be more than one of some cigar size under a brand and they are just named by "size" (No. 2, Monarca, Corona Extra, etc.) and use a different "size" name between them to differentiate - for example, H. Upmann produces the Monarca and the Sir Winston, two different churchills. It's also because Cuba doesn't produce different kinds of wrappers to "nickname" with, save for the odd maduro here and there.
Hope that helps clear things up a bit

I think I will stay a noob. And to think I thought learning about the NCs was hard when I first started sliding down the slope... Sure would help if they were named similiar to the others. Thanks for the info.
