My first thought ' Coruscant'.  The name makes sense now.

Well, I had to look up "Coruscant", so you can see how movie-literate I am not. 

I had never heard of coruscate, or any of its variants.  I wonder how well-known it is.  I think I'll take a poll among my 3D friends.

But I have a use for it.  When I remove my hat in bright sunlight, I can warn people to beware of possible blinding coruscation. :/
