Weâre pretty sure that whoever makes up names for STAR WARS is brazilian (or at least speaks portuguese). Seriously, thereâs, like, so MANY names that have a double meaning in portuguese.
The ones I remember without having to look up are:
-Darth Maul (Maul is pronunciated more or less like âmauâ which means âevilâ).
-Dooku (sounds like âdo cĂșâ, which is âof assâ. They changed his name to âDookanâ on Brazil).
-Sifo-Dyas (âfo-Dyasâ sounds like âfodiasâ, which comes from âfoderâ - in english âto fuckâ. They also changed his name on Brazil, but I donât remember what to).
-Panaka (sounds like âpanacaâ, a slang that means âstupidâ).
-Endor (sounds like âem dorâ, âin painâ).
Those are the ones I remember right now, but I think there were others. Me and my friends are pretty sure thereâs someone in Lucasfilm, like, trying to put as many of those as they can without anyone in there nothing and giggling.
