You may have seen https://carnegiescience.edu/new-moons-uranus-and-neptune-announced by now which reports two new satellites of Neptune and one of Uranus.

As Uranian satellites are named after characters in plays by Shakespeare, I propose that the newcomer be called "Bottom".

Does anyone here have any influence with the IAU naming committee?
