    Don’t worry, the scientific community is working on getting it renamed to solve exactly this problem.

    It’s going to be called “urectum”.

      I’m a genuine proponent of renaming Uranus to “Caelus.” It’s the only planet (save earth) not named for a Roman god. It’s named for a Greek god, and completely breaks the naming convention. Funny word play aside, I’d like to see it renamed Caelus.
