MULAREC. Originally thought to be a gas giant, Mularec is in fact a terrestrial world,
a super-Earth with an extremely thick atmosphere and bizarre magnetic fields, which
scrambled beyond repair the electronics of the first probes sent to visit it. Its surface
is though to be smooth, dark, and plagued by thunderstorms.
⦗mass: 4.63 earths
⦗radius: 23662 km
⦗class: terrestrial
⦗surface temp: -219°C
⦗distance: 4.66 AU
⦗eccentricity: 0.04
⦗inclination: 0.043°
⦗rotation: 11 hours
⦗orbital: 12.8 years
⦗satellites: 2
composition: iron, silicates, gases.
Nulvec.
Recinirec.
Six of six, the last one in this series. Beyond Mularec, there's a yet-unnamed outermost asteroid belt with a few minor bodies, and then, even further, a spherical area sparsely populated with icy rocks and such-- both totally normal for a solar system, much akin to our own system's Kuiper belt and Oord cloud (respectively), though proportionally smaller. And beyond that, who knows? Note that all of the information in these maps may be subject to change if necessary as I keep working on this stuff; I'll try and neatly document any such changes.

You could just use the terrestial names for those places, the Kuiper Belt and Oort cloud. I have seen the latter one even in Warhammer 40k books, so I guess there's nothing wrong with that name, unless you want to rename it according to one of your local astronomers.
This super earth sure looks special, that far out from the sun!

I have a planet like that in a system I made up. It's called Etida and it is an analogue of the hypothetical Planet Nine in the Solar System. However, the differences are that it has seven moons (one spheroidal one about the size of dwarf planet Ceres) and a thick hydrogen haze obscuring its already dark surface, which has lakes of hydrogen, which points to it forming in the inner part of its host system (the Algo system) before being yanked out by the five, then six, gas giants into the outer system where it nearly became a seventh gas giant. However, it was then ejected into a highly inclined and elliptical orbit, where it forces the detached objects and Arnaaoids (Sednoids) of the system to align their orbits opposite Etida's.
Yes. They are captured detached objects in orbits that crossed Etida's. With Etida's Hill sphere extending for over a billion kilometers from Etida itself, it was relatively easy for unlucky stray asteroids and dwarf planets to get caught into orbit around the planet. However, its seven moons are all tightly packed within ten million kilometres from the planet despite all that space. Same shtick as Pluto really. It's basically an oversized TKO (trans-Krionian object). Krios is the last planet in the system just past Norex's orbit (Norex is Neptune's equivalent).
In fact, I have made up over 200 planets and dwarf planets orbiting around a wide variety of stars. Some more interesting ones are:
Ilari, Amali, Quill, Kaneli, Kass, Revali, Teba, Harth, Fyson: Planets orbiting a dying red giant. Ilari and Amali have been engulfed by their parent star while the habitable zone is out at Teba's orbit, heating its once-frozen moon of Tulin into a habitable world. Quill, the once habitable planet in the system, has been incinerated into a lava planet.
Khaar, Gaar, Haar, Suuv, Rete: Five supermassive terrestrial planets orbiting an orange dwarf star.
Cruea, Cthon: "Zombie" planets orbiting around a white dwarf star. Cruea is a dwarf planet about the size of Makemake.
Kol: A small, Mars-sized planet orbiting a brown dwarf.
Rokh, Okko, Superbia: Three planets orbiting a young blue giant star. The central blue giant is rapidly rotating, appearing in their skies as an oval sun.

Others include:
Arranka: A gas giant with a curious case of moon-ception. It has a ice giant-sized moon (Ka'a) with a sub-satellite of its own. The sub-satellite is habitable.
Phoenix: A gas giant with an interesting moon system. Its largest moons mimic the inner Solar System out to the asteroid belt. Its largest moon, Anqa, has a sub-satellite of its own, Pteron. The gas giant itself has a large ring system.
Arthe: A superhabitable planet. It is a super-earth orbiting around an orange dwarf star in its habitable zone. It has an alien race that is mostly pacifist in nature.
Zivniq: A habitable planet orbiting a pair of binary stars. It has rings and several moons. Zivniq is part of a system with six planets.

I even made one inspired by the Chariren System. The red dwarf star is named Zumruduanqa and has nine planets: Inzor, Swya, Hauke, Tuke, Aetus, Jusa, Pluvio, Urne and Kelo. It also has two main dwarf planets: Larovin and Heckle. Pluvio is a binary planet and Heckle is a quadruple dwarf planet system. Inzor orbits within a belt of asteroids with several dwarf planets nearby. Swya, Hauke, Tuke and Aetus resemble the inner planets. Larovin orbits between Aetus and Jusa. Jusa is a "perfect gas giant", with clearly visible cloud bands and a large ring system (think Jupiter with Saturn's rings). Pluvio orbits in a 2:3 resonance with Jusa. Urne is a large ice giant and Kelo resembles Mularec.
