Xinhuanet and chinanews call the satellite "11th Beidou navigation satellite" (di shiyi ke beidou daohang weixing). The CALT announcement call it the "11th Beidou-2 satellite" (di shiyi ke beidou er hao weixing) which is a nomenclature I haven't noticed for recent flights. The COMPASS name seems to be used for English-language stories mostly.

An article in Chinese makes reference to a final G5 orbital location of "about 6°E". This seems to be a misprint for "about 60°E" which was mentionned before as a Beidou-2 GEO satellite location.
