We all know Lucas doesn't give random names unless he's hyped up on herbal brownies, so I was curious as to where the name "Zett Jukassa" came from. You can tell/flame/murder/incinerate me for this.

Prolly just confusion on your part, I was asking the origin of his name, not the kid himself. We all know he was created when Georgie took a viagra instead of his normal sane pills.

Uh do you mean the kid that came out of the temple as Bail was trying to go in? The one played by Jett Lucas? I dont recall Bail sending any Jedi anywhere.

The origin? Lucas took the first letters of the actors name and switched them, and tweaked the last name a bit so it wouldn't be too blatant. I think there are other instances of that, like Anthony Daniels' bar character in AOTC is named Daniel Fayatony or something like that.

But you wouldn't know the names of these characters unless you stuck around for the credits, and even then you'd have to get confirmation from a web site to be sure. Hey, they're not called Ewoks anywhere in the movie, but that's what we call them!

Zett > Jett, and Lucas couldnt call him Fettstick out tongue

Zukassa is a twisted form of lucas, Zukas, lucas, So his sons name is Jett Lucas, he names him Zett Jukassa, like chinabing said, Lucas created an Anthony Daniels character named , Danni Faytonni, which is a twisted version of his actual name. Get It.

So true! I remember reading something that Vader was Dark Lord of the Sith and wondering "What the heck is a Sith?"

I never plucked up the courage to ask what the sith were till I was about 18 for fear of looking stupid. Then I realised that NO-ONE knew what the sith were!

If only we had the Internet in the 70s.
