Okay, I'm confused. At least once or twice in the past 30 years, someone has announced finding a "tenth" planet. Shouldn't we be up to 12 by now? What happened to the other new planets?

For example, what about this tenth planet, discovered in March and already named?

Proposed name may be "Lila"

NASA watch

"...The discoverers of this object have a name but they have not released it. If you look at the end of this press release there is a link to a page Caltech. If you follow a link on that page about this discovery it has the name http://www.gps.caltech.edu/~mbrown/planetlila/index.html. So, is the name suggested for this planet "Lila"? Answer: it is the name of Mike Brown's newborn daughter..."
