You can get these names by extracting the levels from the Super Mario Galaxy 1/2 ISO and using WhiteHole to look at them and find the planets. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 14:58, July 3, 2019 (EDT)

| So I noticed that for this galaxy (and a few others as well), people have been putting in the file names for each planet instead of making conjectural names. The Mariowiki Naming guide SPECIFICALLY mentions the Galaxy games, saying that conjectural names would be used for the planets. Another problem is that using the file names makes it very confusing and kind of alienating to users. If someone sees the name of a planet, they should be able to easily figure out what planet it's referring to or get an idea of what the planet is, but that's currently not the case. For example, if someone saw the "Pukupuku Gambol Planet", nobody would know what planet it's referring to or have any idea of what the planet is. Most people wouldn't even know what the words "pukupuku" or "gambol" mean. The same is true for most other filenames. Most people don't know that "Teresa" is the name for [[Boo]] in Japanese, everyone will be confused by the random "E" in Relay Planet E. This is also true for other galaxies. Ghostly Galaxy's filenames aren't nearly as bad, but one in particular is called the "Star Peace Shooter Planet". It has Star Piece misspelled, and it doesn't really have anything to do with star pieces. We should almost definitely go back to having conjectural names, at least for planets where the filenames don't make sense.
