After consideration of the options proposed names of the four new chemical elements, which have been opened in recent years, International Union of Chemists chose the following:
113th member - Nihon (Nihonium, Nh),
115th - Muscovy (Moscovium, Mc),
117th - tennessin (Tennessine, Ts),
118th - oganesson (Oganesson, Og).

Public discussion of the suggested names will last for five months, after which the 8 November meeting, the IUPAC Council will made a final decision.
