An extra moon for Earth.

As long as it is an orbit far enough from the Moon's, I expect it should be fairly stable. 

I'm not sure how the resonance would have an effect, possibly that could allow a closer orbit.

(all probably what you knew or suspected already)

Can we call this extra moon "Tanman"?

I was thinking of another large object inside the moons orbit, But my concern was more along the lines of is the Earth massive enough to have another large moon. "Tanman" sounds pretty good.
