Saga Star Wars names - Best & Worst

Dexter Jettster is terrible!
I think the original intention was the name to sound funny.
Fortunately they realized it wouldn't work out and he got called on screen just by his nickname.

Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader are amazing names!
Both sounds great and achieved an iconic status on our culture.
I can't choose between them!

 

Best Boba Fett or Han Solo.

Worst I totally agree with Sheev as Palpatine's first name. Why did he need one?! Lol. Dishonorable mention goes to Jynn Erso which I just think is a too generic Sci-Fi name. The names have to have some poetry to them. Her name is just bland.

 

Best: Darth Vader or Luke Skywalker, easily. Boba Fett is great too.

Worst: Sheev and Savage Opress.

 

Sheev is a straight borrowing from Michael Moorcock's Kane of Old Mars series -- the Sheev were a race of alien precursors who died out long ago, but whom the current Martians assume to be benevolent.

Regardless, it is rather silly-sounding as a name for a galactic dictator.

 

Best: There's countless good ones, but I'll go with Ahsoka Tano.

Worst: I don't know. I guess I'll just go with J'ywz'gnk Kchhllbrxcstk Et'nrmdndlcvtbrx.

 

I take it back. Paodok'Draba'Takat Sap'De'Rekti Nik'Linke'Ti' Ki'Vef'Nik'NeSevef'Li'Kek is now the worst name. Did someone just smash the keyboard when creating his name?

 

Or "Slick", to his friends.

 

Best name: Droopy McCool

 

Jocasta Nu. Because one type of incest wasn't enough.

 

I'll stick with names used on screen.

Great - Luke Skywalker, Darth Vader, Qui-Gonn Jinn, many more...

Awful - Jar Jar Binks, Boba Fett (Boba? Really!?), Porkins, Chewbacca, many more....


Cool and goofy names are a part of Star Wars. Love 'em all!

 

Best: Anakin, Yoda, Krennic, Thrawn, Ahsoka (there are a ton of great names)
Worst: Porkins and Snoke are the first that come to mind

 

Best: Anakin Skywalker

Worst: Rose. Rose isn't a bad name in itself, but I find it really bland for a Star Wars name. Honestly, most of the main characters in the ST have pretty lame names for SW characters (Poe and Ben are particularly bad, and Rey and Finn are okay, but I think they could've been more creative.)

 

You could say the same about "luke". Pretty well known earth name - only used in order to shoehorn "Lucas" (Luke.S.) into the movie.

 

Best: Obi-Wan Kenobi
Worst: Black Krssantan (Hard to spell and slightly racist-a wookie's fur should have nothing to do with anything)

 

I think Ben is just fine. After all, we had 'Ben' Kenobi as well. Honoring him by calling a child after him kind of fits, though it probably would have worked better for a child of Luke than one of Han and Leia, seeing how the latter two didn't have nearly the same connection to Obi Wan as Luke had.

 

Best: Leia Organa, Darth Vader, Thrawn, Cassian Andor, Lando Calrissian, Sabine Wren

Worst: Jar Jar Binks, Snoke, Porkins, Savage Opress, Count Dooku, Dexter Jettster

 

Best: Elan Sleazebaggano. This name is everything to me

Worst: um, Dooku because it makes me think of poop, idk

 

My best name: Lando Calrissian.

Worst: Snoke. It's like having someone in such a high position of such cunning and power named....Keith. "Hey everybody.....You're in danger now...watch out for....KEITH!"

Makes me think of "snorkel," and I imagine someone with a snorkel mask on!

 

Obi-Wan Kenobi is the best character name in any film.

 

Best: Mace Windu

Worst: Crylo Ren

 

Best: Droopy McCool or Elan Sleezebaggano

Worst: Don-Wan Kihotay or Boba Fett (bubble feet??0

 

best: luke skywalker, obi wan kenobi, salacious b. crumb

worst: dooku. lmao

 

Can we start a best and worst planet name thread? Naboo and Cantonica have got to be the worst.

On topic, Dooku is just such a terrible name, especially for a villain and especially for somebody as awesome as Christopher Lee. Lucas should've stuck with Darth Tyranus, that's a pretty dope name.
