Well, for what it's worth, the Star Trek Technical Manual lists
replaced ships for those lost/destroyed as  II (I know, I know,
the Tech. Man. isn't God's gift to the ST Universe, I'm just
making an observation).

Actually, I like your suggestion the best: build another one
(of the Constitution Class) to replace the Enterprise, give it
another registry number, and call it the Enteprise.  On official
documents and things, they can call it Enterprise II, but then
Kirk could still say "These are the voyages of the starship Enterprise.."
