Naming hybrid plants

Raleigh, NC(Zone 8b)

Greetings!
I know this is not a Hibiscus forum, but does anyone know of an online source and/or book for the procedure in naming a new plant hybrid? I have a couple of Hibiscus hybrids I crossed this year and want to know if these have been done already and if not how can I go about giving them a name.

Thanks!

Ray

PS: I have a couple of Brugs in my garden too. Here is a pic of one that bloomed last month. Not sure of the name as the plant was given to me without one.

There's also an American Hibiscus Society http://americanhibiscus.org/index.htm They might be able to steer you in the right direction...
