If I discovered a particle I would name it "Kelly And Who?", which would make sense to a few friends and family members only. But discoverer's privilege, right?

That's why we are given the right to name it
I just hope Kelly would be good with it, the name will be the name of the dust forever!

Thanks, Nikita, for the supportive post.
I think she (Kelly) would like it.

So would we be given the opportunity to learn why you chose that name?
I hope that you find one, it would be fun to hear this story!

Are dusters still being asked to name particles?
