      Some people would name it after themselves, but I think I’ll go for naming after the city I live in – Glasgownium.

      Zahranium (after my dog and because it sounds like the whacky sort of name given to elements).

      Readium? As I’m working in Reading at the moment. I think that has a good ring to it.
