There are a few that would be cool to see, as they are from some of my favorite books, and part of a larger universe shared amongst the other books from the same author. While they are planets in the books, they would work for systems as well.

Re: New Galaxy - Thoughts
I envision a spiral galaxy with 12 arms. Each arm named after one of the principal Greek deities:
Zeus, Poseidon, Hera, Demeter, Athena, Apollo, Artemis, Aphrodite, Hephaestus, Hermes, and Hestia.
Mere systems and planets are beneath my ample skills to worry about naming, unless of course it was The Elkhorn System.
Perhaps systems named after famous sci-fi authors:
Jules Verne, H.G. Wells, Hugo Gernsback, Robert Heinlein, Arthur C. Clarke, Frank Herbert, Isaac Asimov, Ray Bradbury, William Gibson, and Orson Scott Card.
Not necessarily science fiction, but still notable:
JRR Tolkein, Kurt Vonneget, and Robert Jordan.
Planets could be named for book titles, or would that be going too far?
