Xena and Gabrielle were Xena : Warrior Princesscharacters played by Lucy Lawless and Renée O'Connor. These names were not adopted by the International Astronomical Union for the dwarf planet "2003UB313" and its moon. In August, 2006, the IAU chose "Eris" (Grek goddess of discord) and "Dysnomia" (Greek for 'lawlessness') as the names of the objects. The objects were photographed in 2003 and identified as solar-system objects in January, 2005. During the period between discovery and naming, the Palomar Observatory team (Mike Brown, Chad Trujillo, and David Rabinowitz) had used the TV names as interim designations for the faraway planetoids.
Well, we cannot say that they are two new planets but they are new discoveries and considered as dwarf planets. Xena and Ceres
An example of a dwarf planet is Pluto. It orbits the Sun in the Kuiper Belt and was reclassified as a dwarf planet in 2006 by the International Astronomical Union.
Yes, the dwarf planet Eris is named after the Greek goddess of strife and discord. It was previously known as Xena..visitMethodInsn
The dwarf planet "Eris" was originally nicknamed "Xena". So, Xena was the name of something that was thought to be a new planet, but is now classified as only a dwarf planet, like Pluto.
our dwarf planets are Pluto
Gabrielle - Xena - was created in 1995.
dwarf planets are called dwarf planets because they are too small to be classified as an actual planet. Pluto is a dwarf planet as well as Xena and Ceres. Which you probably do not know of because we do not study them as main planets in our solar system.

The three celestial bodies redefined as dwarf planets by the International Astronomical Union (IAU) are Pluto, Eris, and Haumea. They are recognized as dwarf planets due to their size, shape, and inability to clear their orbits of other debris.

Yes. "Xena" was a provisional name given to Eris.
Astronomers searching for additional planets beyond Neptune had reserved the name "Xena" for the "warrior princess" of the 1990's TV show. When they discovered a planet larger than Pluto, they assigned that as a provisional name. After the IAU demoted Pluto from "planet" to "dwarf planet", the object tentatively named "Xena" received a permanent name of "Eris". Eris is believed to have one moon.
Lucy Lawless played Xena in the movie and TV show Xena the Warrior Princes. The show also starred Renee O'Connor as Gabrielle, Xena's trusted sidekick who often helped her out.
