TRY THIS IT IS KIND OF FUN - It appears that George Lucas uses a formula to create all those stupid names you hear in the Star Wars trilogy and Phantom Menace (Jar Binks, ObiWan, etc.). Well, I got a hold of the formula. To see what your Star Wars name is, follow these steps.

Your Star Wars First Name

1. Take the first 3 letters of your last name.
2. Add to that, the first 2 letters of your first name.

Your Star Wars Last Name

1. Take the first 2 letters of your mother's maiden name.
2. Add to that the first 3 letters of the town or city you were born in.

There you go! That's your Star Wars Name. Try it on your friends.
