Well, it looks like they've narrowed down the choices for Jacen's Sith name. Not as bad as I feared. Anyway, those who have an account at the official site can vote.

In all frankness, why should the prospect of contributing to a book written by Karen Traviss somehow be an incentive?

All names are bad. Oh well.

Those names don't really inspire me, to be frank.

Plus, I don't care about the Legacy novel series.

Can someone post the options just so the rest of us can see?

EDIT: never mind, they're already there.

Remember that Jacen is a Sith Lord who chooses his own name, like Darth Bane did (as opposed to Darth Vader, for example, who was named by his Sith Master). So when voting, you might want to keep in mind Jacen's personality/thoughts/motivations and how those might affect his choice of Sith names.

I think it would be more appropriate and good to also keep the author's personality, thoughts and motivations in mind when naming him, which is why I propose the name "Darth el Wat'efahko Loco". That is Mando'a for "great smart person plus justice-something".

Where's the Mando'a' for "He who rips out tracheas"?

We've been covering this in the post-NJO thread too and nobody's happy with the choices either. Personally, I'm like Darth Paxis, but everything else is crap...

I've always preferred the Sith names that are a word starting with "in" with the in taken out. Like Vader, Sidious, Ert, Ept, Cest, Defatiguable.

That second one should be Traviss' sith name.

I like "Darth Who". They can give him a Sonic Saber

Most of the ones listed sound like they'd be better suited for starship titles than Darth names.

Just for fun!

Seems like they forgot Darth Competent, Darth Sane and Darth Cest.

Not sure how you would draw that last once and keep it as pg as the rest of them.

It's not like it stops there-there's Darths Convenient, Capable, Tolerant, Appropriate, Nuendo, Humation, Capacitated, Excuseable...

Wait, they're deciding this by fan vote? Is this for real?

Shouldn't it be, like, chosen by a writer to fit a dramatic vision? I'm confused.

Traviss?

Dramatic vision?

Any Vision?

Please, it's not Mando'a wanking, it's below her notice.

The options are either (a) EU author choose the name, or (b) EU fans choose the name. Either way, you lose, right?

EDIT: Darth Acheron would be funny. He could be hunted down and taken by Surprise!

Do you know how many of those there are? I also didn't mention Darths Conceivable, Ternal Combustion Engine, Ternational Politics, Communicado, Fant, Admissible Evidence-the list goes on and on.

Darth Ane

Darth Dochina

Maybe Darth also stands for Im- as well, thus Darth Potent, or Possible, Probable?
