    Enter a systematic designation for a star, either using the Bayer system (Greek letter, constellation) or in the Flamsteed style (number); or, for less bright stars, you can enter the HD, HIP or (Universe forbid) Gaia catalogue number. From there it will be given a proper name, as has been done for generations—even if it is currently unnamed in the existing literature.

    I've been told that my references to global folk traditions and contemporary popular culture are absurdly obscure, and I've got a little sense of humour too, so give it a go!
