Topic: Stuck naming a character - ideas welcome

I'm starting a Star Wars spoof about the background characters that have a story just as interesting as the main characters but know one ever gets to hear about that because, well, they're background characters.

I have this character - female - her name needs to be like Princess Leia but not Princess Leia.  A funny twist or something that rhymes would be good.  "Princess Bossyboots" or things like that would also have comic value.  I know I'm not offering much context here but any ideas - even bad one's - are welcome! mini/dizzy

I know you were going to do something with Stikfas, but if this is a Lego animation, and you want a funny twist, how about "Princess Legola"?  It sounds a bit like Leia and has "Lego" in her name.  Put the accent on either the first or second syllable.

Yeah - I was going to do a Stikfas but I'm doing a collaboration on this brick film and they've been waiting for me since xmas already.  mini/confused

Legola might work.  I'll put that on the short list - thanks!

I would just call her princess and whenever she tries to tell people her name they interrupt her or a loud noise makes it so no one can hear it. Then turn it into a running joke and have her hate to be called princess.

(But this is coming from a guy who's charicters seemed n his current project are named 'sister', 'brother', 'man' and 'mom')
