King George III? I was just watching a presentation about King George villified in history as the King who “lost the colonies”. The Brit author gave some good arguments that he accepted the independence of the US in good terms.
Yes King George III
Specially named “Georgium Sidus” (the “Georgian Star”)

Snobs didn’t like a relative amateur who got above his station by doing actual science getting to name things, so they changed the name.
Me, I call it George
