Just blame it on the B52s, they started the Planet Claire movement.
Yes, the B52s have a lot to answer for, including "Planet Claire". Hmm...I wonder if someone will come up with a Writer's Block question involving "Rock Lobster" next:
If you had your very own lobster would you want it to be a Rock Lobster or would you want it to pursue some other career?
Anyway, still campaigning for that "Bob" planet. ;D
Get someone to write a song about it. That might help. ;-)
Ooooooh! Good point! Yes, the name "Claire" would be totally justified if we were dealing with a star or a planet exhibiting characteristics that made it light or bright. :-)
That's so sweet of you, especially considering that most people probably thought of the B-52s when they saw it. I think I will go for it -- if I do manage to discover my own planet. ;-)
I also thought of you when I first saw it. What a lovely name for a planet! It sounds like a bright cheerful planet. We'd have to ban humans from setting foot on it.

I hope it would be bright and cheerful. And I totally agree with banning humans from visiting it if we're going to keep it that way. The only exception might be scientific teams conducting research, but that would be it.
It's only because of the B-52s song - honest. *g* I'm glad you think it's a good name for a bright, shining planet. Now we just need someone (preferably a B-52s fan) to discover said bright, shining planet.

Maybe if it was a star, or had an atmosphere full of gas that tinged it a light or bright colour, considering the meaning of your name.
