HD 164604 b is named Caleuche. The name was selected in the NameExoWorlds campaign by Chile, during the 100th anniversary of the IAU. Caleuche is a large ghost ship from southern Chilean mythology which sails the seas around the island of Chiloé at night.
An astrometric measurement of the planet's inclination and true mass was published in 2022 as part of Gaia DR3.
