Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Most star names have originated from Arabic, as astronomers in the Islamic Golden Age were the ones who extensively studied and documented the skies. However, some of these Arabic names have been derived from earlier Greek or Latin names. Italian, on the other hand, has had a significant impact on astronomy, but not on the naming of stars.
