Stars in the astronomy community are not named after people (although asteroids are). So, on a technical level, it's an honorary thing instead of official. But I'm willing to overlook that!
I normally don't think I have a celestial body when I look in the mirror. Having a star renamed after me may cause me to rethink that.
The next time you gaze at the sky look for my star. Feel free to wish on it!
