Suggested nameNyzug
Planet typeHot gas giant
The planet is named after the deity Nyzug, the bringer of chaos.

Nyzug is gravitationally locked with Kepler-15 in a 4:3 spin-orbit resonance, and rotates in a way that is unique in its solar system.

Its orbital eccentricity is the largest of all known planets in its solar system; at perihelion, Nyzug's distance from Kepler-15 is only about two-thirds (or 96 pct) of its distance at aphelion.

Optical ground-based telescopes are typically limited to resolving features about 300 kilometers across when Nyzug is closest because of Visupec's atmosphere.
