What would H1N1 be called if it came back even more advanced?

The influenza viruses are identified by and given names that correspond with the proteins on the capsid of the virus (outside coating of the virus). For example, the two proteins on the H1N1/09 virus are Hemagglutinin and Neuraminidase, therefore the virus is called H1N1.The name of any mutations of the H1N1/09 influenza virus, would follow this same naming convention and it would be called by the name that is descriptive of the particular proteins it has on the capsid after the mutation.See the related question below for more information on the naming of influenza viruses.
