1. How to come up with a name for Star Wars?
You've probably seen how people come up with fancy names for themselves? But perhaps you don’t know how?
Using the formula below, you can easily come up with a Star Wars name for yourself.
There are several such formulas, here is one of them:
- Take the first 3 letters of your name.
- Add the last 2 letters of your last name.
It turns out your “Star Wars” name. After:
- Take the first 2 letters of your mother's maiden name.
- Add the first 3 letters of the city in which you were born.
This is your “Star Wars” surname.
Example: Let's say your name is Vladimir Putin. Mother's maiden name is Turina (I don't know the name of Putin's mother). You were born in St. Petersburg. So, the first name is Vlain, the last name is Tusan. So, your name is Vlain Tusan. By the way, my name is Makov Sovor.
Another variation of George Lucas' formula to find out your name:
- Take the first 3 letters of your last name.
- Add the first 2 letters of your name.
Is that your name. The surname is determined in the same way as in the previous case. Then, if your name is Vladimir Putin, then your name in Star Wars is Putvl Tusan. And then my name is Basma Sovor.
To change the name a little more, add a "Star Wars" appeal:
Darth Vlain Tusan
Grand Moff Vlain Tusan
Obi-Wan Vlain Tusan (at least "Obi-Wan" is a noble title)
2. Other names in Star Wars.
The names of Star Wars characters are not accidental. There is an explanation why Lucas came up with these names. Here's what he says: "I simply came up with names phonetically. I wanted part of the character to live in his name. The names had to sound unusual, but not trivial, like the sci-fi "Zeno" and "Zorba."
Darth Vader was taken from Danish and can be roughly translated as "Dark Father".
Anakin Skywalker's name was taken from the name of the race of giants from the book "Origins" (Anakin), and Skywalker - to show his character - is translated from English as "Skywalker".
Han Solo. Han is a derivative of John, a very simple name. Solo means that a person adheres to the philosophy of solitude.
Chewbacca. Some people like to chew tobacco. Previously, names were given according to occupation. How do we know that maybe Chuya's ancestors loved chewing tobacco?
3. Yoda's unique sentence structure.
Yoda, the great Jedi sage, constructs his sentences uniquely when he speaks. Here are some comments on his way of speaking:
"If Yoda is so powerful in the Force, why can't he form sentences correctly?"
"When you are 900 years old and look as good, you won't." - Yoda
Personally, I like the way he speaks :).
"Star Wars" is a cult epic fantasy saga, which includes 6 films (the seventh is currently being filmed), as well as animated series, cartoons, television films, books, comics, video games - all imbued with a single storyline and created in one fantastic universe Star Wars, conceived and realized by American director George Lucas in the early 1970s and later expanded.

In 1999 The movie “Star Wars” was released. Episode I: The Phantom Menace,” which marked the beginning of a new trilogy - the prehistory of the original.
According to George Lucas, the idea for the film was influenced by Joseph Campbell's research on comparative mythology (The Hero with a Thousand Faces, etc.).
The beginning of the Star Wars story is considered to be 1976. It was then that the novelization book of the same name by A.D. Foster and George Lucas appeared, telling about the events of Episode IV: A New Hope. Producers at 20th Century Fox feared the film would fail at the box office and decided to release the book early to gauge its success. In 1977 at the World Community Congress science fiction George Lucas got special award"Hugo" for this novel.
