フランソワ＝ルネ・ド・シャトーブリアン
The asteroid is named for the eponymous heroine of the 1801 novella "Atala" by François-René de Chateaubriand. The Henry brothers also named the last of their discoveries, 186 Celuta, after another Chateaubriand heroine. Both Atala and Céluta are American Indian fictional characters.
