Etymology

The ursulisma was named by Aura and VIxen in 2023. It refers to 375 Ursula, the asteroid. After some naming attempts in the XA Discord Server that turned out dissatisfactory to the participants, VIxen came up with the idea to look up the list of minor planets in case everything else failed, and Aura was the first to put together the word ursulisma.

The origin for the asteroid’s own name is unknown.
