Name a star for Christmas

Some Christmas gifts are opened, enjoyed, and quietly forgotten by Easter. A star isn't. Name a real, catalogued star for someone this Christmas and it's theirs in the register forever — a light they can find on any clear December night, long after the batteries in everything else have run out.

Under the tree: the Gift Pack — £19.99

For something to unwrap, the Gift Pack arrives as five beautifully printed documents, sealed and posted free: their personalised name certificate, a fine star chart with their star marked, its precise coordinates, the mythology of their constellation, and a stamped extract from the register. Slim enough for a stocking, grand enough for centre stage under the tree — and everything digital is included too.

Christmas morning, 7am, nothing bought: the Classic — £9.99

The Classic is our instant digital star naming: allocated and delivered within minutes of ordering, any hour, any day — including Christmas morning in your dressing gown. Send it as a beautiful e-gift reveal by WhatsApp, email or text: they tap, the sky opens, and their star is unveiled with your message. Print the certificate at home and slip it in a card, or let the reveal be the moment itself.

Who to name a Christmas star for

• Someone who has everything — they don't have this. Nobody does, until it's theirs.
• Grandparents — a star named for them by the grandchildren, with the certificate framed, is the kind of gift that gets kept.
• A first Christmas — new babies, new marriages, new homes: a star marks the year it all began.
• An empty chair — for a family missing someone, a memorial star gives the night sky their name. Quietly, this is the gift we're proudest of.

Honest, even at Christmas

We're the star naming company that tells the truth: star naming is symbolic. Only the International Astronomical Union assigns official star names, and it doesn't sell them — to us or anyone. What we promise is real: a genuine catalogued star, dedicated once and never resold, in a register anyone can check. Here's exactly how it works — worth a read before you buy from anyone, including us.
