Darth Pernicious

I'ld greatly appreciate it if someone could PM me the link. Thanks.

The whole Obi-Wan referring to Vader as "Darth" in Episode 4 always confused me too , but since all the Sith are called Darth it makes more sense as a title.

Maybe Obi-Wan doesn't realise that Darth is a title. So far in the the prequel trilogy none of the Jedi have heard the the name "Darth" being used and there is no hint that anyone referred to Emperor Palpatine in the original trilogy as "Darth". Obi-Wan possibly believed that Darth was the first name of Anakin's new identity.

I'm new here, but I just thought you would like to know how Lucas actually came up with the darth names.

Actually the darth names have nothing to do with 'in' (Except for Sidious). Originally, the first Darth ever named was Darth Vader - supposedly the two words were derived from the words "Dark Father".

However, when naming the prequel Darths, Lucas follows the rule that you pick a verb that means "to cause injury and harm" and fit it into the name.

So Darth Sidious comes from the word Insidious, whichs "to stealthly plan to cause harm to someone".

Darth Maul comes froms the word Maul, which is a verb meaning to damage/harm someone.

Darth Tyrannus (ie. Count Dooku) comes from the Latin word Tyrannus, which means to cause tyranny,  ie. to rule people cruelly.

Darth Bane, who was first mentioned in the Phantom Menace Novelisation, comes from the word bane, which means to poison/harm someone.

Also many people believe that the word Darth itself is an abbreviation of the title "DARk lord of the siTH".

BTW, that was me that posted above - forgot to log in.
