 105 Dubnium
In 1994 IUPAC proposed the name Joliotium (Jl) for element #105 "to recognize the French scientist F. Joliot-Curie who contributed greatly to the development of nuclear physics and chemistry, and who shared the Nobel prize in 1935 with Mme.
Curie", and for element #104 Dubnium "to recognize the distinguished contributions to chemistry and modern nuclear physics of the international scientific centre at Dubna near Moscow." The American Chemical Society kept the name Hahnium (Ha), as proposed by Ghiorso and co-workers.
In 1997, at the final elements christening during the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) Council meeting in Geneva, element #104 was named Rutherfordium and element #105 got the name and symbol Dubnium (Db) (see "Naming the transfermium elements" on the Mendelevium page).
