Name a Star

In one respect, we might think that to name a star is materialistic, pretentious, or just downright silly. We can’t literally “own” a stellar mass; we can’t ever visit it or hold it or show it off in a glass cabinet of collectibles or hard-earned trophies. But I another respect, to name a star is a magical, unique act, an act relegated only to discovering scientists and astronomers before this our advanced and spoiled century (or decade or so).

I would never have thought of it as a possibility up until a few years ago. I, like many, I suppose, thought stars were named by astronomers and night sky devotees who spent years, even decades, staring at one particular patch of canopy until they found a star no one else had before found or identified. But a few years ago, when I was voluntarily resigning from a job that was nutty but that had many dear colleagues and co-workers, I wanted to give a special gift to those with whom I had survived staff meetings, conflicts among the higher-ups, actual floods (in great rooms with hundreds of plugged in computers), and more. We had over the three years I was there already gifted each other with foods, material items, and books and videos and other art and technology essentials or luxuries. We had already made gifts. We had already run out of special, funny, entertaining, unique presentation techniques. And we had honoured each other in the most sober and most spiritual of ways in public and in private. You know, we did the surprise parties, the one-time jewellery giving, the anniversary performances and programmes, and more.

I wanted to “give” the people with whom I had spent more of my waking hours with than any other people on the planet something grand, something with a statement, something, well, of planetary importance and worth, if you will.

I don’t know how I came upon the name a star website, but I was brilliantly intrigued and relieved when I did. For thirty pounds each, I could name a star after each friend, type in a note to be included, and have delivered to each much loved, respected, revered person a map of the night sky with his/her star circled, a gift card, and an explanation of the gift.

My friends were absolutely speechless. And pleased that in my name a star card I had said that whenever I needed to, I could always look up in the night sky and see them. Okay, maybe a little hokey in the extended metaphor and sentiment department, but what do you expect from one who was overworked, underpaid, and underappreciated…by everyone save those dear co-workers who were left to suffer the same for a few more years? At least they will have a symbolic connection not only to me but, interestingly enough, to the programme we ran together which was named the STAARS programme—long before I discovered this great star-naming idea. And at least they can feel a little better that they are—to me—stars.
