Name the planet! (Name Exoworlds)

This year, the International Astronomical Union celebrates the 100th year since astronomers around the world united and formed it. On this occasion, the astronomers of the world gave each member country the opportunity to sponsor a newly discovered planet around a star! Serbia was given the opportunity to choose the name of the yellow dwarf star WASP-60 and its planet WASP-60b, which has twice the mass of our Jupiter, although it is similar in size. This system is located in the direction of the Pegasus constellation about 1200 light years from Earth. The team of Serbian astronomers has been collecting name suggestions for this planet and star since June 1st, and on the Night of Researchers, you have the opportunity to vote for the ones you like the most! The three names with the most votes from you enter the finals and are sent to the International Astronomical Union as Serbia's official proposals! Cast your vote and help a distant planetary system!
