Borg? Hardly, there is already a Google product with the same name.

But more importantly, it is the name for a castle in several languages. So unless Paramamount is planning to sue a lot of very old places in Norway and other countries...

Borg at Google is not a product per se, it's a internal tool/service. Pretty sure you can name internal tools whatever you want.
