Sedna

Sedna is the Inuit goddess of the oceans but it seems strange that they chose this name rather than another Roman or Greek diety. I would have liked them to use the name Bacchus (Roman god of wine and drinking) but then again I would!!!!

If I discover a minor planet I'd call it Eric. Well we have Eric the fish (he is an 'allibut), Eric the cat and Eric the half a bee so why not Eric the minor planet?
