Yeah, Forky was announced a while ago and like you I immediately went to
check minor planet names but at
http://www.minorplanetcenter.net/iau/lists/MPNames.html not wikipedia.

This was the list of possibles that I extracted from it:

(1224) Fantasia

(23989) Farpoint (Star Trek episode)

(109) Felicitas

(6765) Fibonacci

(8780) Forte

(76) Freia

Being a fan of the Ring Cycle and knowing the mythology, that was the
one I favored also. It might even be released 5-6 years from now if
planet earth makes it that far . . . LOL!
