The last of these stars to rise in the 17th hour (ε) has the same name as ω, viz. Kajam, but in order to distinguish between them I named it Cujam (the name Kajam already having been used for ω in my astronomy book):
"ω, a 4th magnitude double, by some early transcriber's error, is now given as Cujam, from Caiam, the accusative of Caia, the word used by Horace for the Club of Hercules, which is marked by this star.

The Club of Hercules is supposed to have been a separate constellation with Pliny." (Allen)
