This minor planet's name is a pun. It's numerical designation contains each even numeral, in order, more or less. I bet the astronomer who got this number was quite pleased to have come up with this name; almost as pleased as the guy who named 13579 Allodd.

The symbol for this minor planet is a rendering of the mathematical expression "2n" which describes all even numbers for integer n.
