Naming edit

It is in the Chinese asterism 左旗 (Zuǒ Qí), or Left Flag which consists of 11 Sagittae, γ Sagittae, α Sagittae, β Sagittae, δ Sagittae, ζ Sagittae, 13 Sagittae, 14 Sagittae and ρ Aquilae. Consequently, the Chinese name for γ Sagittae itself is 左旗七 (Zuǒ Qí qī, English: the Seventh Star of Left Flag).[citation needed]
