    Sigjö Idmot I don't think this algorithm works very well on Swedish names.. :) -- Eventhough the forrest is full of trees, there's still no tree between the trees.

      In a Italian science newspaper (Focus n° 124 February 2003 page 4), I found this silly paragraph: "Your name in Star Wars". Let me try to translate this small script: "I’ve get an email with this nice formula: it seems to be the one used by George Lucas to create the names of the strange creatures of Star Wars (Jar Jar Binks, Obi-Wan Kenobi, etc, ...). Do you want to know your name in Star Wars? 1. get the first 3 letters of your last name 2. add the first 2 letters of your first name. For your last name: 1. get the first 2 letters of the last name of your mother 2. add the first 3 letters of the city where you were born. Done! – Signed MIRMI CALIL” Then I tried, so, my last name is "Johnson" (I’m 1/2 US and 1/2 Italian), so the first 3 letter are “Joh”. My first name is John, but everybody calls me "Andy", so adding the first 2 letters from the name I use are "an". At the end, my Star Wars name is: "Joh" + "an" = "Johan" For the the last name: the last name of my mother is "Dalle Ore" (she is Italian), so the first 2 letters are "Da"; strange fact, I was born in Germany in the city of "Augsburg"... so the first 3 letters of the city are "aus". At the End my last name in Star Wars is: "Da" + "aus" = "Daaus" My Star Wars name must be: "Johan Daaus" ...nice way to create a new nick names, no? :-D
