Is star naming legit?
Yes, star naming is legal and no national or international laws prohibit offering people to name a star.

Your star name will be recorded in the online Star Name Catalog for the lifetime along with the received registration number. Star naming is about offering a meaningful and personalized gift rather than creating an official scientific record.
Is the star visible from any location?
A star's visibility depends on several factors, including your location on Earth, the star's position in the sky, and the time of year. Stars visible in one hemisphere may not be visible in the other, and some stars are only visible during certain seasons. Therefore, we always select a star that is visible from your location. Additionally, you will have access to our Star Finding App, which will guide you on where to look in the night sky to find your star.
