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]
Samuel Reyher [de] (1635–1714), a German mathematician and astronomer at University of Kiel, where he was first to introduce astronomy as a scientific discipline.
ꞌAylóꞌchaxnim means "Venus Girl" in the language of the Luiseño people who are indigenous to the coastal area of southern California where the discovering Palomar Observatory is located. The name alludes to the fact that the orbit of this asteroid is entirely contained within that of the planet Venus.
