M2. High propoer motion (ie, it's moving relatively fast in
comparison to others around). Also known as GJ 3809.

Had a hard time with this one as the SIMBAD database doesn't recognize
this designation. I had to hop a few catalogs to get this as LTT 5734
or Wolf 1478 before the SIMBAD database would recognize it. It is an
M3.5 variable star; already told you two other designations for it. ;-)

K5 high proper motion star. Also known as HD 211970.

M0.5 variable star; also known as NSV 13984. Not sure what
the "L" signifies.

M2.5 variable star. Also known as NSV 7119 or LTT 6210. Not sure
why the LTT is listed as you have it above; shouldn't be there.
Probably a few good reason why these stars are unclaimed. Now
why the Alarishi haven't already snagged them up is something
to think about...
