My Names Project

OK, here's the deal. I have to name about 270 planets. I suck at coming up with names, so here's you chance to achieve nothing but the warm feeling that you've help a hack writer with a block.

What I need a place names that would translate well to a planet. Doesn't have to be in English, but a quick explanation of the name would be appreciated.

TIA!

Being at Pantheacon, I'm going to throw you a deity name:

Taranis - continental Gaulish thunder/lightning god. The sort of planet some wag would give that name to would run two directions. I don't think I have to explain which two.
