Before any of you moderators think of deleting this topic for being unrelated to KOTOR, what a second, it is.
Supposedly the Kotor makers had some kind of fancy for Homestarruner, so they secretly added Homesar, Star, and even Strongbad to the random name generator, when you make your character.
Homesar and Strongbad I can see, but Star can mean anything.
Has anyone seen this at all? I saw Star, but have yet to see Homesar or Strongbad.
Homestarrunner?

I guess since a few people have been naming there people, the subject should be
"What is your PC's name?"

I haven't seen any of these in the game. The first time I played, I generated a few names before choosing one, Shala Chan.

Aye, I have seen these. Star can mean almost anything, and it's really one of the most common name's in Sci-Fi and Fantasy, be it only Star or something like Starkiller or Silverstar.Homesar and Strongbad I can see, but Star can mean anything.

Not sure why, but I find that very funny
Shed: Yes, my grammer/spelling sucks. Or should I say "My grammar and spelling are not in the right." OMG, I can make money off of this!
Have you ever wished you could just "run that paragraph by" an expert before it went out to the client? We all have. Wouldn?t you like to have a real person to ask about those nagging punctuation questions? That?s a good idea. Editorial Resources certainly provides grammar correction, but we also infuse our editing assistance with a common sense reality check. How might an outsider take a certain wording? Is your tone appropriate for the situation?
Communicating an effective and appropriate message in today's E-mail-dominated, Post-itŪ note society is becoming more and more challenging. As shorthand, cryptic messages infiltrate our lives (from E-mail to Palm Pilots), we sometimes forget how tied our image is to our written communications when it comes to grammar, punctuation, and the true meaning of the messages we want to deliver.
To help give you the peace of mind you want and to bring back the inherent quality of proper language and writing, Editorial Resources provides a premium service called Ask the Editor. Firms can subscribe to an ongoing service that provides professional editorial service for everyday documents such as memos, letters, E-mails, faxes, and presentations. Please call for details.

I thought I had seen the name 'Canderous' somewhere before KotOR and so I looked into it and found the name. In BG I, the Gatewarden's Training Area, where you get the band of adventurers for the time you train there. The cleric's name is Canderous! Did they take the name from there to KotOR or is Canderous a name they use regulary?

I did actually notice Homsar as a random name.. I remember even doodling it on some paper so that one day a few years from now when I look over my old drawings I'd rediscover that trivial quirk and chuckle. Man, I think I need to get a life.
Though, just for the record, I was a scout/Jedi guardian named Telmar. There were some neat names in that generator.. Wedge was one of 'em.
I wonder if they put that in just so someone could make a really bad character and find all kinds of different ways to die. I remember in Final Fantasy 6 and 7 also had Wedges that died early in the stories. Maybe that is the Way of the Wedge: come in, give a few lines, die horribly.
