Sedna and Veruna
These are the tenative named of two dwarf planets recently discovered beyong pluto. The others -- for the sake of naming them -- are Eris* and Quaror. Anyway, what do you think of Sedna and Veruna?I like them both, especially Veruna.Any mn suggestions for Veruna?
* Eris is the only of the four to be considered an offical planet, and it is the only of the four with an offical name. It has a moon, called Dyscordia. Formerly, this planet was unoffically called "Xena" and it's moon "Gabrielle" after the cult TV show.

Other thenbeing tired of hearing about them...I love Eris and Sedna. I'm not sure if Eris' name has been changed - your professor may know more then me.Varuna...doesn't work for me. But I really love Sedna.

Okay, Oops, my spellings were wrongIn defense, my professor has messy handwriting. :-)The "planets" are Varuna, Sedna, and Quaoar.I've also found out, with googling, that Varuna is a male Indian God.But... well, I like Veruna, even if it is a non-name, so what do you think of it?~ Arcadia
