    No this mysterious " Tenth Planet " is actually the Third Death Star which has been sent to our planet from a parallel dimension by an evil version of George Lucas to erase all traces of the abominable Jar Jar Binks.

    +10 points if you get the reference.
    I'm not bothered about the points, but I think you deserve a thumbs up for using the H2G2 reference.

    Apparently some of the scientists really want to call it Xena.

    I sort of doubt it that would be like pointing up taking a picture of Jupiters moon Io and saying they found a new planet. It proves nothing in this case.
    Annie, are you ok
    Will you tell us that you’re ok
    There’s a sign at the window
    That he struck you
    A crescendo, annie
    He came into your apartment
    He left the bloodstains on the carpet
    Then you ran into the bedroom
    You were struck down
    It was your doom
    Annie, are you ok
    You ok
    Are you ok, annie
    You’ve been hit by
    You’ve been struck by
    A smooth criminal

    There's the hideout of the Teletubbies!

    ...Seriously, one more planet is always good. Especially if there's oil involved, so the war will be far away from here...*starts imaginating a war between green humanoids and american soldiers*

    There is no such thing as a 10th planet. In fact, there is no other planets than earth. Earth is the center of the universe, which consists only of Earth and a bunch of stars, no other planets. And the Earth is flat. it really is. well, not perfectly flat, is kinda bumby due to hills and oceans and mountains. So, im going to say that this entire thing they teach and preach about in school with the planets and the world being round is complete bullplop. Thank You...

    I doubt that the planet wouldn't be named after a Roman god or godess. That's just been the convention so far (aside from the Earth). Here are a few of the major deities that haven't been used yet:

    -Apollo, the god of the sun.
    -Bacchus, the god of wine.
    -Ceres, the goddess of the earth.
    -Cupid, the god of love.
    -Diana, the goddess of the moon and of hunting.
    -Fortuna, the goddess of luck.
    -Janus, the god of doors.
    -Juno, the queen of the gods.
    -Maia, the goddess of growth.
    -Minerva, the goddess of wisdom.
    -Proserpine, the goddess of the underworld.
    -Quirinus, the god of defense.
    -Vesta, the goddess of the hearth.
    -Vulcan, the god of smithing.

    Of these, I think Proserpine would be a good name, considering the planet's proximity to Pluto, the god of the underworld.

    Did you not see what I said. There is no planet. its all a hoax created by the government to give them more power.

    By the way its like 3x as far away from pluto as pluto is to here.

    Earth is named after a Roman Goddess. Her Greek name is Gaia. Also I doubt they would use any variations to do with Sun or Moon deities considering that we already have a Sun and a Moon.

    Also when I was like in elementary they were talking about the mysterious tenth planet or planet "X". It is not an uncommon theory. Though if there is really a planet they should call it...*thinks* Minerva, actually she is pretty significant and should be reconized.

    I'd like to see them call it Vulcan, but then I've watched faaaaarrrrrr too much Star Trek in my 20 years on this earth. Hell, I think half the world would get a kick out of that, Star Trek fans or not. The other half would just go "ugh". And after a few months of jokes about the planet "Vulcan", even the most hardcore Star Trek fans will go "ugh".
