Controversy time:   The question is, why name a character something dumb like
		    Anakin? (well, I'm paraphrasing)  We all know about
			Luke	=== Lucas
			Obiwan	=== OB-1

Wellllllllll, how about:
    Anakin  ===  Ana-Kin  === "No kin"
(Get it?  He was a clone just like OB-1 and the emperor.  Obviously the Jedi
got in above their heads and tried cloning to breed a better knight.  What 
they got were the Skywalker clan and a super-powerful Jedi who fell to the
dark side and became the Emperor.)
