When it comes time to settle QQ-645b, I think Mythril would be a good name for Moria’s source of aluminium.

I don’t think Nick plays…

I won’t make any name suggestions as that just seems unfair currently. But I know others found this useful last time:

KI-448b: HE3 ‘bootstrap’ planet just off ANT
XH-594b: FEO and HAL planet near MOR (but not far from BEN or HOR)
VH-331g: Hortus-G, starter planet SCR and MAG
OS-099c: BRM and AR ‘bootstrap’ planet, miles from anything
KC-765c: Highest MGS planet, miles from anything
YK-649b: SIO planet, near ANT
QQ-645b: ALO SEA planet, near MOR
PG-899b: Already named
OT-442b: Barely Fertile SCR and O planet, near MOR
QJ-149c: 3rd highest ALO planet, near ANT

Sorry I noted that it was already taken when I made the poll but then it didn’t post correctly which led me to making it again and did it in a rush. But to be clear, I am aware that PG-899b is named :slight_smile:

Looks like KI-448b will be receiving a name! Before I make the final poll, are there any others suggestions for name for KI-448b other than Fusion and Hermes?

GC-032h should be named Fusion, as it’s the best HE3 planet. Hermes not only fits the nearby theme of greek gods, but they were -early- gods, and KI-448b is an -early- HE3 planet.

Gotta back Hermes on this one. But this is coming from a guy with ships named Abeona and Adiona.

While I’m honoured I’m named as the namer of Hermes, I actually can’t take credit.

Indeed I didn’t come up with it. I suspect Nick saw my updated post listing planets and suggestions as the highest mention of Hermes on this thread, but as Hobbe says, Hermes was somebody else’s idea.
