Such an amusing, yet odd question. You couldn't name a planet any old thing. And what it would be named would have to depend on so many factors---the color, the characteristics, etc. That's how at least some of our current planets were named. So I doubt I'd have a name for one until I studied it all over, because I'd want a name that would fit.

**nods.** The mythology names are lots of fun. X3 And I'd enjoy picking one to name a planet, after studying it to determine what might sound right. Just numbering planets is so boring! ;__;

Too true, unfortunately.

Ooh, yes, there is a lot to take into consideration.

Usually, planets outside our solar system are named after the star they orbit-- like Pollux's planet is called Pollux b. So unimaginative... (The planet is the setting of my original novel, and I had the people who live there give it their own name. X3)

Pollux b ... **imitates ALF.** BOR-ING!

Oooh, that's awesome to set your original novel there and have them give it a better name. XD

Of course I would have to name it Bob. (Haha, go Titan A.E.)

**snerk.** Yay Bob Effect!

Clearly, the only logical name for any planet is Bob.

Heeeeeeeeey, I'm back from Tekko, and there was an angsty Cloud-and-Zack AMV. I can look for a link if you're interested.

Buwahaha.

Oooh. X3 Sure! ^^

**nods.** Totally! You'd have to know what the planet was like before you can name it. Though I suppose that's not really possible with the planets they discover from Earth. XD;

I'm not really sure what I'd name a planet I discovered. Though I do want to discover the one named Gaia! XD

On a side note, my sister wants me to discover a new life form on another planet and name it a "durango." Because no one knows what the heck a durango is, other than a car. XD

**nods.** I think I was really imagining new planets being discovered in this solar system when I saw the question. XD I'd really like to name a planet Athena, but it'd just be silly if the name wouldn't fit. LOL.

Yay Gaia! X3

LOL!
