'''Puck (Uranus XV, S/1985 U 1)''' is the sixth largest [[Natural satellites|moon]] of [[Uranus]] and its orbit lies between Uranus' rings and [[Miranda]].

The name '''Titania''' and the names of all four satellites of [[Uranus]] then known were suggested by [[w:William Herschel|William Herschel's]] son [[w:John Herschel|John Herschel]] in 1852 at the request of [[w:William Lassell|William Lassell]], who had discovered [[Ariel]] and [[Umbriel]] the year before. Lassell had earlier endorsed Herschel's 1847 naming scheme for the seven then-known satellites of [[Saturn]] and had named his newly-discovered eighth satellite [[Hyperion]] in accordance with Herschel's naming scheme in 1848.
