I could see an advanced civilization with lots of habitable planets having a naming convention of star name then planet number. So we’d be Sun-3. Or if we rename the sun to Earth, we’d be Earth-3, called “Earth” for short. In English, our planet name literally means dirt. 😞
Ideally, you’d organize it like the animal kingdom or something. Very detailed and perhaps giving at least a hint to its location. Then you’d have a colloquial name for it.

That’s all (?) indoeuropean languages I think
Dirt is great. Have you seen the other planets in our system?
Also one of them is called Uranus. Dirt is great.
“An advanced civilization”?
Sure, try typing “Sol-3” and “Sol-3a” into wikipedia.

I love the cataloging aspect. Maybe official names like those, plus imaginative names from whoever lives on it, or whoever discovered it.
