Later given the designation 607 and given the name Jenny in 2003 by Aaron Henderson, named after his wife's mother Jenifer Rooker, who died when she was young.
Photometric observations of this asteroid at Palmer Divide Observatory in Colorado Springs, Colorado during 2007 gave a light curve with a period of 8.524 ± 0.005 hours and a brightness variation of 0.21 ± 0.03 in magnitude. Results reported in 2003 giving a period of 7.344 hours were deemed the result of a data ambiguity.[2]
