Call it the starfish nebula. Or perhaps the kite nebula. Or maybe the box kite nebula.

To me the Nebula could be named the Cloud Nebula or the Cumulus Nebula and going a bit farther in imagination the Cauliflower Nebula

Starfish Nebula? I think it looks like a starfish
![Yes. :yes:](./images/smilies/yes.gif)
Or simply a 5-pointed star. But mostly a starfish.

I would call it, the "Pillow Nebula", on account of the fact that is has four corners and looks to be very fluffy.
