he difficulty with star names is that a lot of them are Arabic to
begin with. "Ruchba" and "Nihal" may be good cruiser names for
another nation, but I can't see going into battle with the "Hen's
Knee" and "Camels Drinking".
I would also, ideally, like to get something which an Arab speaker
might chose. *I* wouldn't have thought they'd use Madinah, except
that there's already a ship, Sa'udi IIRC, which is named that.
