      It would, indeed. I wouldn’t mind if it was the scientific/“proper” name for Earth.

        I would; it’s too close to Telus (but pronounced the same), a terrible phone company where I live.

          How do you pronounce the company name? For reference, Latin “Tellus” would be /tɛllu:s/; the nearest English equivalent would be “TELL loos”, I guess.
