Naming the World's Tallest Giant Sequoia... (look)

[Ghengis]

According to my research, the worlds tallest (311') Giant Sequoia (couple of latin words) currently resides in the Redwood Mountain Grove of Sequoia NP and doesn't have a name. This tree should be named. We could raise some money and sell the naming rights to some billionaire or have a vote. Here our my suggestions if it comes to a vote...

Harmon Killebrew
Me (my idea)
You (state your name)
Andre The Giant
Eleanor Roosevelt
Other _________



Some of the significant trees found in the grove include:

Roosevelt Tree — the largest tree in the grove with a volume of over 1,000 cubic metres (35,000 cu ft).
Hart Tree — a very tall tree with a volume of around 980 cubic metres (35,000 cu ft), and a huge basal burn. Located near the Roosevelt Tree.
Unnamed tree — the tallest known giant sequoia tree, at 311 feet (95 m) in height.

If we named one tree, would we end up having to name them all? How would the smaller trees feel if they weren't given names?

They’d feel left out, but it’s not unusual. Only the most prominent members of a family are given names, otherwise you’d end up with thousands of different titles that barely anyone would remember.

Please expound. Am I correct that you're referring to the tree family?
