Maybe Eridanus (there are 3 dozen faint galaxies within the constellation), or Cepheus (the cepheid star below the constellation would be our North Star... if we lived on Mars).
And Rodney would know these things too, and he'd have to explain all this to John in his "why weren't your parents sterilized before they could produce children?" voice.
Rodney: Cepheus! John: What? Rodney: I want my name to be Cepheus. John: Again: what? Rodney *crossing his arms and glaring at John*: I'm joining your crazy root-grubbing Athosian Flower Commune for World Peace ashram thing or whatever only on the condition that I get to pick my own name. John *sighs and hopes the sex will be worth it*: And you want your name to be... Cepheus? Rodney * in his "how do you manage to dress yourself in the morning? voice*: John, I don't think you fully appreciate how cool a cepheid variable is. John: You'd be right about that. Rodney: Well, they're very cool. Did you know they have masses five to twenty times the size of the sun? John: No, I didn't. Cepheus. Rodney: Well, they do. Also... *rambles on into sciency things until John kisses him into shutting up*
