How to Name a Star With a Personal Dedication
Naming a star starts with choosing the name, date and dedication that should appear on the certificate. With Star-Naming.com, the chosen details are connected to a personal registry entry, registration number and Universe Star Finder App access.
Choose the Right Star Name
A good star name should feel personal and easy to recognize. Many customers choose a first name, full name, couple name, nickname, family name or a short phrase connected to the recipient. The name becomes part of the certificate and star entry.
Add a Meaningful Date and Dedication
The date and dedication give the star name context. You can use a birthday, anniversary, wedding date, memorial date or another meaningful day. A short dedication can turn the certificate into a keepsake that explains why the star was named.
Make the Name More Personal With a Constellation
If the constellation matters to the recipient, you can choose a package that lets you select one. This can be especially fitting for zodiac signs, favorite constellations, romantic gifts or memories connected to the night sky.
Create the Certificate and App Experience
After personalization, the star name appears on the certificate and is connected to the registry entry in the star registry and Universe Star Finder App access. When you are ready, you can create your personal star gift on our Name a Star page.
