This Satellite Name Generator will give you 10 random names for satellites, but they work for similar space objects, stations and ships as well, to some extent at least. Explore a galaxy of Satellite Names 1000+ name ideas for your celestial explorers.

Satellites are usually named after either a celestial body, a Greek or Latin mythological being, or after a person, usually a scientist or other important figure in history. I focused primarily on scientist names and on names of celestial bodies. The first 5 names are scientist names, either first or last names, and names will randomly be assigned a serial number of sorts as well, as some satellites have these. But not all names will have one though.

The last 5 names are names of celestial bodies, but they come in many different languages. These too might be paired up with a serial number, but again not all will have one.
