[Facts] Re: Leia
in reply to a message by Perrine
The Greek word for “princess” is πριγκίπισσα (prinkipissa), not “vasileia”. I think you’re confusing it with the Greek word for “queen”, which is βασίλισσα (vasilissa). It’s much more likely that he just used the Biblical Greek form of Leah.
I think Padmé is probably a French-style variation of Padma, and Anakin is based off of Ken Annakin’s surname.
