A reasonable point. Sorry, I lived through the prequels. I tend to assume that post-ANH, Lucas is responsible for all the stupid stuff and that all the amazing stuff was either a happy accident or someone else's input. I am aware that this is not entirely fair

This little monkey's name reminds me how terrible George Lucas was at naming things. Really George? Your seafood people are called the Mon Calamari? And your lead Ewok needs a surname and a middle initial? Nice work.

Pretty sure these were not from Lucas. I imagine ILM came up with a lot of the names themselves for fun/reference, and then Kenner went from there.

Same reason the A-wing and B-wing got their names, they were originally called A fighter and B fighter during development.

Didn't know that. Makes a lot of sense as to why the B-Wing has its name. A wings at least arguably look like an A.
