Conan O'Brien took to his Twitter page Tuesday to tell fans that he'll announce the name of his upcoming TBS late-night show ... on Wednesday. 

"I was going to announce the name of my new show today, but my lawyers tell me 'The Return of Nanny McPhee' is taken. Tune in tomorrow," tweeted Coco. 

The show debuts Nov. 8.

O'Brien, as you may have heard, replaced Jay Leno as  host of NBC's "Tonight Show" until NBC decided it wanted Leno back. He left in January when he was told to move "Tonight" to 12:05 a.m.to make way for Leno's return.

Prohibited from appearing on television until September, he's built up an online community of fans who felt he got a raw deal from NBC and hang onto his every Tweet. 

He joined Twitter Feb. 24; since, he's accumulated over 1.5 million followers.
