ヨハン・ボーデ
This minor planet was named after Johann Elert Bode (1747–1826), German astronomer, author of the "Berliner Astronomisches Jahrbuch", known for the empirical Titius–Bode law about the sequence of planetary distances. Bode also was the director of the Berlin Observatory in 1780. The asteroid's name was proposed by Swedish astronomer Bror Asplind "(see citation for )". The official was mentioned in "The Names of the Minor Planets" by Paul Herget in 1955 (). The lunar crater "Bode" is also named in his honor.
