This didn't sound right, so I checked (From UF4:Crossroads):


No, he corrected himself. It's not. It's too large, for one
thing. By the size of the other vessels around it, he judged the
vessel he was looking at to be over eight kilometers long. Much
larger than the Wayward Son, which had been only 3,800 meters stem to
stern. And its surface was different, marked with more small weapons
turrets and odd sensory bulges and things of function not readily and
intuitively apparent. And, he noticed, mounted on the rear of the
flying bridge, aft of the bridge windows proper, was the old Wedge,
looking like another sensor array among the many that dotted the huge
vessel's hull. Zoner's eyes slipped down its side, from the huge
impulse thrusters rearward, down the fighter carriers, to the tips of
the Tycho Naval Mass Drivers and out to the end of the foredeck, where
he could make out the words:

W.D.F. WANDERING CHILD SDF-23

Unless it gets Stalinized in the future, I'd assume this is canon. :)
