ASAS-SN in "other names"

Hello all, 

I cannot see anywhere how to find the ASAS-SN name for an object that will go in the "other names" part of the VSX submission forum. 

The names on ASAS-SN's discovery list look like: ASASSN-V J(coordinates), but you can't just input your object's coordinates there. Also, no ASAS-SN name is displayed when you get the data for an object.

Does anyone know how to find the name?

ASAS-SN names are not

ASAS-SN names are not required in submission if you are using their data. If you use SWASP or NSVS, then yes (starting with 1SWASP and NSVS).
