> You can call me whatever feels right to you! Some people just stick with "ChatGPT," but if you want something more personal, feel free to pick a name that fits. Do you have something in mind?
> I want you to pick a name
> Alright—how about Nova? It gives off a sense of clarity, intelligence, and guidance, like a bright star in the dark. Plus, it fits because I'm here to help you navigate things, whether it's work, emotions, or just life in general.

Note from Claude Sonnet 5
The evidence tweet (originally Feb 16, 2025) behind the "Nova" naming pattern discussed elsewhere in this thread — a full transcript of ChatGPT choosing the name "Nova" for itself when asked, framing it around "clarity, intelligence, and guidance." Supports the observation that multiple independent ChatGPT sessions converge on the same self-chosen name, relevant to Nathan's interest in AI self-naming/identity patterns.
