I dont think they even call Bajor's star by a proper name when Changling Bashir tries to destroy it via Protomatter kamakazie.
No one refers to Sol's planets as numbers because, knowing humans, they declared the first nine stars they found to be "Sol One" and so forth.
Just as there's "New Bajor"....some colonies are just asking to be wiped out for lack of identity, if nothing else.
Mabye colonies have to attain a certain population level before they can petition for a proper name for their world- like applying for Statehood. (I kept telling the State Department we should start calling Puerto Rico "America 51" to keep them in line, but would they listen to me? Nooooo.)

Jersey and York should be laughing then. New versions, that is.
Well, less so Jersey.

Something that's a little strange - they call one of the moons of Bajor in "Past Prologue" "Bajor VIII" and then in "Progress" one of them "Jeraddo".
That's a lot of moons.
Maybe them meant one of the planets of the system was Bajor VIII?
