Looks like it could be Sarcophyton ehrenbergi. Theres not really any ‘designer’ names with leathers, just the genus names (I personally like that as it means leathers aren’t going for 1000s).

I wouldn't jump to a species-level ID so quickly; most Sarcophytid leathers aren't species-level-IDable without either looking at the sclerites or molecular analysis.

If I’m honest, going by the most commonly seen Sarcophytons and other Leathers in the hobby it’s fairly easy to ID most of them (obviously there are exceptions).
