Thread: Star Wars Names: The Name Doctor is IN!

Nijal Ha-Xon
The feeling I get from this name is Nigel Haxxor, which is funny and all, but not very Star Wars. Nijal in itself is a great name, and I recommend it as such, but anything with Hax in it is suspect in our current cultural stage of the Internet. Like I have said before, folks who track these things have noticed this is already on the decline, but until then, Hax names are out.
Now, I recognize you may never have seen this, so here's some suggestions: One, the apostrophe is key, and two, simply play the vowel shift game to get a similar name: Hi'Xin, Hu'xan, etc.
Hm...I hadn't even thought of that. I knew that the apostrophe thing was something to have...but that bit of information came into my head after I'd created the character, and I didn't quite feel like deleting him since I'd already invested so much into him. I can see how the last name can be construed as a hacking reference, and now I see the humor in it. I jut liked the X in it, and built around that. I'll rectify that if I create a new character. Thanks for the insight, Riis!

Beebops,
You have inspired me. I have to write a bio now.

btw Riis, ![]()
I started a Bothan character on Bloodfin by the name of Sax (nickname). I am putting her full name in the (new, though not as good as Beebop's)bio. Right now I have Tomaxxir Ryl'Sammin. Too long for a Bothan? Tomax? Maxxir? Should I use lower case for the last name, like Ryl'sammin? Ryl'samin? Ryl'sa? I chose a long form to reflect the fact that she felt weighted down by history/heritage/duty of her family tree, but I'm worried it is totally unsuitable for her race. Could you give me an example of a good old bothan name?
Bio (the short version):
Her parents are Bothan diplomats (one of the score you see hanging around, I'm sure). She ran from the rather restrictive lifestyle, renamed herself "Sax," and is currently working her way up the ranks as a smuggler. She maintains a loving relationship with her parents (from a distance), though she is, of course, officially disowned. It is also a mutually beneficial relationship. Her father has a smuggler at his fingertips. Sax shamelessly utilizes her connections.
Thanks! /blowkiss

My original name was going to be Noah Cye but I had to unfortunately remake my character on the first day of release and it wouldnt let me use Noah so I used Noel instead... But when/if I do get my FS character I'll either name em Noah Cye or Gengus Cye, "Gengus = Gamegus my main internet name but just more changed to be a little more Star Wars like =P".
I am a human male and currently master TKA and master CH with some medical skills.
