If this has been posted before, forgive- I tried to do a search, but…

Anyway, you take the the first 3 letters of your last name, add them to the first 2 letters of your first name. Hence, James Martin would be Marja. That’s your first name.

Then you take the first 2 letters of your mother’s maiden name and add it to the first 3 letters of the town you were born in. Thus, James’ mother’s maiden name is Scott, and he was born in Elk Grove Village- Scelk.

Our friend Jimmy’s Star Wars name is therefore Marja Scelk.

Mine is Helmi Lewin.

Now you know how George does it.

I was actually in the movie – remember the inital scene, where the Empire was boarding the princesses ship? I was the 3rd rebel guard on the right. George decided my name was way too screwed up, and killed me off quick

kohme hisas

i was thinking it would be pronounced ko-mee hi-sass… but when taken into consideration the way that my last name is pronounced, maybe it’s more like comb his-ass.
