Named in honor of Thomas Burbine in appreciation of his assistance at the Minor Planet Center during January to May 1992. He has recently drawn attention to the similarity of (387) Aquitania and (980) Anacostia, S-type minor planets that share unusual features in their near-infrared spectra and have similar mean distances and proper inclinations - but different proper eccentricities.
