FYI. The "International Star Registry" has no official standing in the naming of stars.
It is strictly a "novelty" item.
I've been asked about this by friends so many times I get frustrated to no end...
On their website...

Naming a star through the International Star Registry ® is not recognised by the scientific community.
The star's name appears in the International Star Registry ® records only.
