"Darth Who? -- Name the Newest Sith Lord!"
It's the The Darth Who Contest!

No. It's not about Dr. Who becoming a Sith Lord. The brilliant minds at Lucasfilm and Del Rey are running a contest to name the latest Sith in their novels, who is Jacen Solo, Leia and Han's son.
"What's in a name? A great deal, indeed, for those who choose to take that final, fateful step and join the dark side. Each Dark Lord of the Sith must leave behind their old identity -- and old name -- in order to assume a moniker befitting their fearsome new status. As it was for Darth Bane, Darth Sidious, Darth Maul, Darth Vader, and a long line of dark disciples before them...so it is now, for Jacen Solo. But what name shall he take to seal his allegiance to the dark side? How shall he be hailed by those who honor, respect, and fear him? Now, YOU have a chance to be part of Star Wars history. Because this time, this privilege of naming the newest Sith Lord...is YOURS.

One Grand Prize winner will have his or her Sith name featured as the official character name in Star Wars: Legacy of the Force: Sacrifice by Karen Traviss. The Grand Prize Winner will be recognized on the acknowledgement page of the aforementioned book.
I'm sure there's wank somewhere about this, but theforce.net is a scary, scary place to venture into, so I'm sticking with ROTFLing at the contest.

I'm so tempted to enter that contest and submit all the stupid Sith names I came up with a few years back. I still have a soft spot for Darth Timpani.

I haven't seen much wank about this specifically - just some eye-rolling. But it'll probably start in earnest after the 'finalists' go up for a vote.

Of course, I'm not reading that thread on TFN, either.

... Wait, Jacen is a Sith Lord?

Well, shows how out of the loop I am for that timeline.

No. It's not about Dr. Who becoming a Sith Lord. *snaps fingers* Damn, I would have read that fic too!

And yeah, I'm not surprised about Jacen. I mean, hell... it's practically in his blood, isn't it?

As brilliant as this move is, I'd suggest Darth Necaj.

More JF-appropriate possibilities include Darth Thoughtson'Yaoi, Darth TL;DR, Darth Iawtc, or of course the most terrifying possibility of all, Darth Jenmar, named after an amalgamation of two classic wankers.

Darth Convienence. He causes trouble to his foes but is really only there because they need a cool new bad guy.

Or something. I don't read this stuff.

Wow, it makes me really sad how easy it was to call that kid's fall to the dark side. Though I am mildly surprised he didn't drag Jaina down with him.
