Our Green Dino Officially Has a Name!
Meet L.A.'s Newest Star: Gnatalie the Green Dino
On view in NHM Commons Opening Fall 2024
The 75-foot-long green dinosaur skeleton that will serve as a focal point of NHM Commons — the museum’s new wing opening this fall — officially has a gname. With more than 1/3 of over 8,100 votes, Gnatalie (pronounced nat-uh-lee) beat out Esme, Sage, Verdi, and Olive, making it the winning name of the Jurassic newcomer.
The winning name was inspired by the gnats that pestered the scientists and volunteers while excavating the fossils in Utah. Gnatalie’s unusual bone coloring is due to infilling by the green mineral celadonite during the fossilization process.
Our sincere appreciation to all that participated in naming Gnatalie!
