Herschel had originally intended to call it "George" in honour of the King, and for many years it was known as "Herschel". Astrologers associate the planet with sudden change and revolution, and say that Uranus had no influence prior to it's discovery (which is just as well, because earlier astrologers should have known about it if it did).
Conflicting sources. :P

with regards
