I announced this already in the addons forum... Under the title "New IAU designations for minor moons (2000 & 2001)" Weird names though

I beleive the naming convention for Jupiter's Satellites is based on the lovers of Jupiter (Zeus) in mythology. Either they extended this or he was a lot busier than we gave him credit for

As for Saturn, the convention was names of the Titans. They've obviously extended this to include Giants from other mythologies (Thrym is from Norse mythology). Ymir is from somewhere else but the mythos escapes me. (might even be Norse too...I'm a bit rusty on my mythologies.)

Yes, looks like it's almost only source of names which hasn't been yet exhausted

That's true, satellites of Saturn have been named traditionally after Greek Titans. Looks like names for new satellites have been given as mythology/satellite family. For example, Ymir, Suttung, Mundilfari, & Thyrm belong to same group. Skadi is also Norse giant but doesn't belong any group, satellites in other groups have been named after Eskimo and Gallic titans.

There's a list of sources for names of planetary bodies at Gazetteer of Planetary Nomenclature site, but it hasn't been updated yet.

Funnily enough, my nickname is taken from a Cornish Giant from the legends of 'Jack the Giant Killer', though I think they have a lot more satellites to find before I find it in print.
