Sorry, you can’t. Sure, you can pay a company to tell you that they did that, but no one has the legal right to name stars except the International Astronomical Union, and they don’t name them after people. There are many companies out there claiming to name stars ‘for entertainment purposes’ but the only place those stars are named is in their book and they ‘sold’ all the bright ones years ago – in fact, there’s a lot of evidence they’re just making up coordinates at this point; they can’t even fake sell stars correctly.

Sure it is a possibility. You can name a star whatever you want and star registry will give you a nice certificate and booklet as a keepsake, but like Eri said, it won’t be recognized by anybody in the scientific community.

Your experience in naming a star after someone will be identical to others in the following ways:
1. You will pay some exorbitant amount of money for them to tell you that it has been named as you requested, when in fact it has not. The only name will be on their list, and nobody else will recognize it.
2. You will get a nice certificate that you can save or frame and pretend that it means something when it in fact does not.
3. You may also get some form of directions to find the star in question. You will not be able to see it. My experience has been that the stars provided are either in the midst of a star cluster with a half million other stars (try to find yours) or is roughly 14th magnitude, so it is so dim it cannot even be seen with a good amateur telescope.
So if the star isn’t really named by anyone but the company that you send your payment to, and if you cannot see it anyway, – why not just pick out a star and name it yourself? At least you will be able to see it.

The International Astronomical Union will not accept your name, even though there are plenty of stars to go around.

Waste of money. You can do it for free with the same validity. Spend some time looking over some stars. Do a bit of research and pick one out for yourselves. Print it out yourself. That is all the others will do and it will not be recognised by anyone except you anyway. So cut out the middle man and give the money to your grandson to mature when he does.
