Dantius would be my first name.

Emperor Dantius Palpatine.

Do a search on Google, and you would find this is true.

Well, I should know my first name, wouldn't I?

Nah. Palpatine has more in common with Gaius Julius Caesar than Adolph Hitler. Or, at least, Palpatine would like to be compared with Caesar rather than Hitler.

It was previously "Senator".

But he got bored, so had to change it to "Emperor" by taking over the galaxy.

Noone believe me, eh? Do a search on Google if you don't.

Now that I've mentioned the real first name, I guess this topic should be locked, eh? Hmm, I'm new here, and already I am trying to gain absolute power on this forum. Sorry, old habits die hard. :)

Eh, no.

Palpatine's given name? Hm...Jack. An appropriately generic name.

Emperor D. Palpatine
All that a Google search on that name gives is a bunch of fan-fiction and rumors. Do a search on "Cos Palpatine" and you'll get the same stuff, but more of it.
And you may ask yourself, 'Where does that highway go to?'

Yes... I see. Dantius sound better. But this was never mentioned in the official sites.

By the way, what does "Darth" mean? Is it a title, or something all Sith lords call themselves when they change your name?

And why did the Emperor revert to Palpatine from Darth Sidious?

(I would call Sidious a slight improvement).

It's the first name of the only Sith Lord to survive the battle which wiped out the Sith a millenia before. The Sith that followed took it as a way to honor their predecessor and it gradually evolved into the semi-title thing it is now.

Hell if I know. Maybe because the galaxy at large knew him as Palpatine?

According to the Radio Drama at TFN, it is Agusta. But that is just a fan made thing and not a real LF production.

Jimmy. Wouldn't you vote for a Senator Jimmy Palpatine?

Or George Walker Palpatine...that may work better :wink: . (sorry, I'll keep it to the Politics forum from now on, I just couldn't resist a cheap joke)

Don't you think they meant Augustus?? That was one of the many titles which Roman emperors had. (Old Latin: "Exalted")

By the way, what about Esteban Palpatine??
