I hope the new minor characters have cool names again, like Biggs Darklighter or Boba Fett or Max Rebo. I feel like as time went on all the background characters started getting completely stupid sounding names, like how they changed Walrus Man's name to "Ponda Baba". Here's a few from wookieepedia:

Even Piell, Kit Fisto, Yarael Poof... Who the f#ck came up with these names? Anyway, I hope the characters in the ST have less hilarious sounding names that don't make me cringe with embarrassment every time I see someone write them in a comment.

Also, I have to get these names from Wikipedia because I'm a Star Wars fan in a sense that I love the OT movies, and I like the history of how the films were made, but I have almost no knowledge of the EU, which means if they didn't say the character's name in the movie, I probably don't know it. I know a few of the OT character's names just because I grew up with the movies and some of my friends told me. There's also the characters like Wolfman and Walrus Man who everyone knows by those names.
