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]
Ngari (occasionally spelled as Ali), a prefecture in northwest Tibet. It is nicknamed "the top of the roof of the world" as most of the region is over 4500 m above sea level.
Georgi Rakovski (1821–1867), a Bulgarian revolutionary and writer and an important figure of the Bulgarian National Revival and resistance against Ottoman rule
Mildred (1939–2008) and Richard Loving (1933–1975) married in spite of anti-miscegenation laws. They filed the lawsuit Loving v. Virginia that ultimately succeeded in striking the laws down following a United States Supreme Court ruling in 1967.
