We have discovered over 6000 exoplanets in total, and over 100 in this year. I'd be surprised if you knew of all of them

Oh you wanna be an astronaut, kid? Name every exoplanet

I mean... it's definitely possible, I have seen a person naming every subdivision of the world, which is a bit less than the amount of exoplanets we know (~4000 vs. >6000), but only by 2000, so eventually some person will just do that.
