Where do these names come from?

Human fascination with the night sky long predates the dawn of history. Many stars and constellations bear labels from old mythologies — for example, the prominent figure of Orion is loaded down with the lore of the ancient Greeks, Sumerians, and many others. While constellations usually form pictures of people or animals in various myths, star names are more of a mixed bag. The majority are related to their constellation, e.g., the star Deneb means “tail” and labels that part of Cygnus the Swan. Others describe the star itself, such as Sirius, which translates literally as “scorching,” apt enough for the brightest star in the sky. Then there are a handful that seem utterly out of place: Lepus the Hare includes a star named Nihal, which means “camels quenching their thirst” — a holdover from a previous and unrelated constellation?Quite a few star names are Arabic, in which al means “the” and often appears in front, e.g., Algol, “The Ghoul.” Its inclusion has become somewhat arbitrary over time; several of these names are given elsewhere with or without the Al- prefix. Most other names in the Western tradition have Greek or Latin origins. The table also includes a few non-Western names (e.g., Chinese).

But regardless of origin, almost all star names are old — hundreds or even thousands of years old. They are a part of our collective cultural heritage. Modern astronomers study many stars too faint to see without a telescope, and these are so numerous they are known only by catalog numbers and coordinates. As a result, official star names are essentially limited to the old name. )
