Can we name the Trappist-1 system after the Kerbol System?

[Dr. Kerbal]

Kerbal Space Porgram has inspired the public of space than more about any other program, edu, or anything else. Maybe not the space race and NASA. But why not name the planets of the Trappist-1 system after the Kerbol System? I’m pretty sure some guys at NASA love space because of KSP! Heck! Some guy already thanked Matt Lowne, KSP, and etc for his dream of space! And that guys works at NASA! Heck! Next time thing we know more people are going to thank KSP for there inspiration of space!

Most definitely not.  There's already a naming convention for exoplanets and I don't see why the TRAPPIST-1 system would be an exception to it.

I guess so.

We can.

Spoiler

But they won't.

It'll be up to the IAU and the astronomy, astrophysics and general science community. KSP might have something but I'm sure in general they'd rather try to pick names which have unambiguous meaning from certain folklore. And deffo not the name of any person. Picking names from KSP would raise the question of what exactly does the names represent.

I say wait until detection techniques allow as to pick system that actually looks like Kerbol.

With same gravity per size.
