How do I name a droid i own with a multiple word name? I've seen peoples droids like "Dr Giggles" or other such things, where their name is two words. Whenever i try teaching it the 4 commands with the name in front, my protocol droid doesnt do anything. Someone told me that you have to use _ between the words (ex: Mr_Bubbles), but again ive seen people do it without the _.


Could anyone enlighten me on how to name a protocol droid with a 3 word name?

Well, first off, protocol droids are not nameable (sp?). All of the "talkie" droids cannot be named, or if they can, nobody has figured it out. Secondly, droids seem to use the same name filter as for PC's. No spaces are allowed, only special characters like - or ' can be used to separate words.

Use a hyphen (-). For example, my Probot is named "Amoon's-Protector", and my treadwell-repair droid is named "Amoon's-Fixit-Droid". Not perfect, but readable. (Oh, and the names are supposed to be subtle advertising...
