Jacen Solo's fan-picked Darth name?

I don't know how many know this already, but it's news to me.

I was skimming Jacen Solo's page on wookiepedia, read a few things, and then clicked on the article that features Sacrifice, a LotF book. I see under the external links is "Darth Who? Contest Information Page", which is obviously a contest, that apparently one, lucky fan get to choose Jacen Solo's upcoming Darth name:

"Now, YOU have a chance to be part of Star Wars history. Because this time, this privilege of naming the newest Sith Lord...is YOURS."

-- Starwars.com.

In my opinion, that's pretty idiotic considering most fan names I've heard sound like pure monkey shit (Darth Hellfire, Darth Guy, etc.), and aren't relevant to their back story whatsoever. I seriously do hope they know what they're doing, and pick a good name:

Darth Who?

I can only hope for the best.

I actually think it's not that bad an idea. I mean, sure there will be loads that suck, but I'm sure there will be a few genius ideas.

Darth Skywalker. 🙂

Darth Evilicious.

Actually, this is a good thing...He's not Darth Krayt, WOOOHOO

lol, I just realised that. Damn that sucks.

whats wrong with him being krayt anyway even if he is not

Nah that was his name, "Darth Who?", they've run out of Sith names so now they're stealing from other franchises.

very true, the legacy era sith darth names sound stupid,

coolest darth name would be revan, andeddu and of course, vader

how but Darth Bolo? swap the b and the s so solo is bolo

Darth AIDS.

His apprentice can be Darth HIV.

Darth Washed-Up sounds good.

Darth Funk, Dark Lord of the Disco! afro

Seriously, Darth Aviates because he is making a refrecnce to Vader, a great pilot and also his dad, a great pilot.

So...he's a Flying Darth?

Darth names don't make reference to skill or something generic. It's gotta be something really personal. Darth Sidious was a conniving, insidious, plotting evil bastard. Darth Vader went to the Dark Side for the sake of his wife and his children. Dooku was a political tyrant. Darth Maul wanted to kill Jedi, and that's pretty much all he wanted to do.

They're all appropriate.

So, if someone wants to make the best name for Jacen, they'd do best to analyze Jacen as a whole. Why is he going to the Dark Side? What are his flaws? Who IS Jacen Solo?

Vader =Dutch for Father
Tyranous=Latin for Tyrant

Better explanation for your points 😉

No, that's the blatant boring way. 😐

EDIT

Haha, awesome that you guys know dutch aswell, too bad the original Vader never had anything to do with being someones father. So the name has nothing to do with that coincidence.

i think Revan would sound better pronounced Reevin, rather than the way Traya said it in a game. But thats just me. Who is gonna be Jecen's Master? Its not still Sidious is it? I was under the impression Han killed him once and for all.

Lumiya.
