Believe it or not, Uranus used to go by another name. What was it originally called?

Uranus often gets made fun of because of its name. Originally, it wasn't even named after heaven's personification; it was named after King George III. Called “George’s Star," the good ol' king was the patron of the man who discovered it, William Herschel.
