      I don’t have a star name – they tend to be quite boring as they are just the star’s co-ordinates. The first brown dwarfs I discovered were in the Pleiades star cluster though.
      My favourite stars are a white dwarf and a brown dwarf in a 2 hour orbit around each other . They’re called WD0137-349A and WD0137-349B…
