Moraband = Korriban (canon)
So it was recently stated in canon that the Sith world of Moraband was once known as "Korriban" in ancient times...
quote: On the desolate planet Moraband, high on a weatherworn mountaintop, stands the statue of a robed Twi'lek. For a thousand years or more, since the ancient times when the world was known by the name Korriban , this lonesome figure has cast its gaze upon the bleak landscape below, and pilgrims venturing to Moraband in search of succor and forbidden knowledge have detoured to pay tribute to the unnamed figure, a man to whom they imagine great deeds to be ascribed--for he must have been a Sith warrior of startling renown to have such a monument raised in his honor.
-Star Wars: Myths & Fables
Not a huge revelation or anything, but I thought it was worth mentioning...

Lucas thought it too similar sounding to Coruscant. Anyway, for some reason I’ve thought Korriban was an alternate canon name for awhile now.

I believe it was mentioned in one of the starwars.com episode summaries. If memory serves.
