If you name a star after her she'll probably think you're an idiot. It would be right up there with buying her a book about horoscopes.
What's your budget? If it's under $50, your best bet would be accessories like a red led flashlight, or a book. You might also register her for a nearby star party.
In the $50-600 range you might consider an eyepiece if she has a telescope. Possibly 10x50 binoculars astronomy gift if she doesn't have some.
Worthwhile telescopes start around $200 and go up, but if you decide to go this route you should ask more questions, and possibly ask them at an astronomy specific web site like Cloudy Nights as it's easy to buy Alli the wrong scope even if you're spending plenty of money.
In any event, it probably makes sense to involve her in the decision if you're spending more than a few dollars.
US $7.99
