    Thanks for the reply Ilandar, i had a whole spiel with suggestions i had typed, but you didn’t ask for advice or an essay reply. You told me your reasons, because i asked and i respect that.

    You have given me an idea that i’m going to share on the AZ Meta though. Cheers for that.

    Also, i know people don’t like this question, but i’m always curious, if your happy to share, whats the story behind the name?

      The first character I created in the MMORPG Star Wars: The Old Republic back when it launched was an Imperial Agent (Operative) called Lastelle Ilandar. Lastelle is the name of the Princess of Pejite in Hayao Miyazaki’s ‘Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind’ and Ilandar was an original surname I thought sounded good when paired with Lastelle. Because I played on a roleplaying server initially, I created a little backstory for the character where she was a daughter of a noble Alderaanian family (House Ilandar). Her family planned to marry off against her wishes, so she joined Imperial Intelligence as a means of rebelling against them. A lot of people use their nickname or gamer name as their online username but I’ve never had one of those so this has sort of become the default one for me, although I haven’t used it that often.
