Actually, Arkayn was quoting another post that was posted before any of the votes for Gort were cast - this one. There were quite a few votes after that post, not just for Gort. Feel free to re-do the list to make it accurate if it bothers you. -Dave ![]() |

Since they are getting two twins in, and since we're looking at the stars, Castor and Polydeuces (or Pollux) for the Gemini constellation for the both of them. ![]() |

twins are a mute point One has already been designated as Oscar (in honor of the main fund drivers wish) We're working on a name for the other I'm for gort from "the day the earth stood still" or if You want a Female name "Barbarella" I'm for Sticking to the Sifi names and not to honor any person Honoring one person by name would be a slight to those who also deserve recognition ![]() ![]() |

I favor sagan, with carl as a second choice. vader is a last name; most others are first (or only) names. I think carl is not sufficiently specific. I see no two part names so carl sagan is deprecated. I also see no long names, so carl_sagan and supercalafragalisticexpialadocious are out too. |

At 85 letters, it has been listed in the Guinness World Records as one of the longest place names in the world.
