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.

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)

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

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.

**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
