(IAAC) asterisms



I am not sure of the protocol regarding asterisms, so I am posting here. 

Last night, while searching out open clusters in Canis Major, I noticed
a pattern of stars near 29 CMa that I promptly dubbed "mini Orion." This
consisted of 6 faint stars arranged roughly like this:

     *       *


        *  *



     *         *

Has anyone else noticed this pattern?
