    So many people with such interesting screen names - I'm just curious as to how some of you came up with your names, so please do tell! I guess I'll start.

    I read somewhere that one way to come up with your Star Wars name (and there are a hundred different versions of this thing), was to take the first three letters of the name you go by - DAL - to use as your first name. Then the car you drive would be your last name - INTREPID. If you wanted to get long-winded with it, you could take the name of a drug you took and use that as the name of the system you are from. For instance, I take some cholesterol medicine, so I could be Dal-Intrepid of the Zocor System. But I only used Dal-Intrepid here.

    So how did you get your screen name?

    I actually have mine from German class in college. We had to pick a German name for class, and I saw in my textbook that Tristan was a popular German name. I took that name and pretty much applied it to eveything I do, I try to keep it the same for eveything so everyone recongnizes me.

    I read online one day that to make you Star Wars name you take the first 3 letters of you last name and the first 2 from your first name to make your first Star Wars name. Then you would take the frist 2 letters of your mothers madien name and then the first 3 letters of the city you were born in for your last name. Mine would be:

    Smida Thspr.

    Looks like a weird alien name maybe?

    For your version Dal I would be Nat-Ranger from the Cipro System. For the other version I would be Doena Mecon. My actual screenname Jedi_Natalie came from being very unimaginative. I really think I was in a hurry at the time because usually on boards I go by ShadowGuard or HurricaneJedi - either of which I would rather have.

    When I did Dungeons & Dragons my character name was Shadow - so I typcially have Shadow in my board names.

    Going by the first one my name would be:

    Rog--SportTrac of the Crack System

    Going by the second, it would be:

    Hobro Jonor

    But the one I made up was Darth_Roger. My name is Roger. I was feeling evil the night I came up with it. What can I say?

    Boba_Fett_of_Nine came from my love of Wars and Trek. Boba Fett is my fave baddie from Wars and Seven of Nine is my fave character from Trek. Just kinda came out of no where...


    using Dalton's formula....

    Rob-Nothing

    (no car...hahaha)

    Dal, for your formula, I would be: Kev Silverado (I'm not on any medication) the name sounds pretty cool. Sounds like a hired gun, maybe a bounty hunter. for the other I would be: Hilke Jolaf (sounds stupid)

    I came up with my last name by taking the first 2 letters of my 1st name and the last letter of my last name. For my screen name's first name I rearranged my first name.

    Jedi Master Vinek Kel my padawan learner's name is Xander Kel (my son)

    I'm really a Supreme Sith Lord, but I didn't want everyone to know my intentions of taking over the galaxy, so I am undercover as a Jedi Master.
