The Colbert Module

Recently NASA opened an online poll to name a room in the International Space Station. They gave four recommendations and a five option: Other. Stephen Colbert, the now-famous fake news anchor, rallied his troops to vote for a write-in candidate: Colbert. After the polls closed last week, "Colbert" easily won with a quarter million votes. Apparently NASA reserved the right to name the module whatever they wanted, assuming they didn't like the poll's results. Should it be known as "The Colbert Room"?
