You just don't seem to get it, Ogygos ... The fact that the planet that we know today as Neptune happens to be called Neptune in no way signifies that it was known as such in the ancient era! As explained in previous posts, it was only after several other candidates had been put forward that
Neptune was chosen ... (I think, in a previous post, you then went on to try and use your number-letter system on some of the alternative suggestions: at which point, I have to say, I really rather gave up on the question).
