There's nothing to stop you creating your own catalogue, naming it after yourself, and including anything you want (including objects with existing common names). Don't forget how stunningly successful the Caldwell catalogue became very shortly after Patrick (Caldwell-)Moore first published it in 1995.

Of course, whether anyone else uses it, and whether you can convince people like Celestron, Meade, SkySafari, Stellarium etc to reference it in their supported databases is another matter entirely!
