New Planets

[mark 19]

Since the recent discovery of a 10th planet in our solar system I was wondering what everyone thinks it should be called. At the moment it has been dubbed "Xena" and its moon has been dubbed "Gabrielle", personally I quite like these names (used to watch the series when I was a Kid) but apparently they are only temporary. What do you think is a good name for a planet? 😀

Also what do people think about the idea of new planets? Do you define Pluto as a planet? Should Xena be recognised as an official 10th planet? 😕

Scientists are still debating whether "Xena" is the tenth planet. AFAIK, Pluto's still a planet. I don't care what it's named, Xena sounds good to me.

I think the name should be a Roman diety, to continue with the tradition, so I think they should change the name to something besides Xena.

I don't care for Xena. But I don't have a better suggestion. How about let's pick someone's screen name? Like KNOX for example. Excellent name for a planet.

Hi Knoxie! (sorry I missed your bday). So how about I name a planet for you to make up for it?

Those dumbass scientist have already used up all the Roman diety names on moons and comets. I think they should name it something perverted. Uranus is getting old.
