What to Look for in a Name

Star Wars has entertained and enthralled millions worldwide since the first movie came out in 1977.

The epic quests, the ultimate struggle between good and evil, the colorful characters, and the otherworldly universe capture fan’s hearts and imaginations.

In this world, character names combine real-world classics with a sci-fi spin. In addition, many names are inspired by mythology, translations in other languages, and literary works.

Creator George Lucas shared that he develops names for characters phonetically. He also noted his goal was to give them monikers that sounded unusual but weren’t too out there and space-like, like Zenon and Zorba. (1)

When developing character names, this information is essential. It helps ensure your character is authentic to the vision of the universe.

Rest assured, all of the options in our Star Wars name generator fit these criteria.
