I just used star names choosing Arabic, Latin or Proper names without duplicating them (which-ever struck my fancy). I've also added some ancient Egyptian names (gods, etc)

Eye Candy has a lot of secondary stars with numbers and/or alphabetical designators (alpha orionis, B-33-A, etc.) which I don't have in mine. But it's a good list just the same.

Dracus: If I'd seen yours sooner - it would have saved me a lot of work.
