As minor planet discoveries are confirmed, they are given a permanent number by the IAU's Minor Planet Center (MPC), and the discoverers can then submit names for them, following the IAU's naming conventions. The list below concerns those minor planets in the specified number-range that have received names, and explains the meanings of those names.
Based on Paul Herget's The Names of the Minor Planets,[6] Schmadel also researched the unclear origin of numerous asteroids, most of which had been named prior to World War II. This article incorporates text from this source, which is in the public domain: SBDB New namings may only be added to this list below after official publication as the preannouncement of names is condemned.[7] The WGSBN publishes a comprehensive guideline for the naming rules of non-cometary small Solar System bodies.[8]
Tiramisu, a coffee-flavored Italian dessert. The name was suggested by Annick Merlin, wife of French astronomer Jean-Claude Merlin, who discovered this minor planet.
Meursault, is a French village situated south of Beaune, in the famous Burgundy vineyard region. The Meursault white wine is well known around the world.
Abe Cheng (1953–2021) was a space physicist. He served on NASA's Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy (SOFIA) as a senior engineer, preparing the observatory's computer systems for flight and transferring its astronomical data to its scientific teams.
