I just realised where Kylo got his name from:
Ky = sKYwalker
Lo = soLO
Ren = literally just his birth name with an R
which means that when he was choosing his super scary Dark Lord name, he just mashed up the surnames of the most positive figures in his life. poor sod can’t even evil right
literally a ‘what is your star wars name’ meme
ACTUALLY THE REASON HIS SURNAME IS REN IS BECAUSE HES A KNIGHT OF REN, AND ALSO KYLO WAS THE NAME GIVEN TO HIM BY THE KNIGHTS OF REN SO THIS IS ALL FALSE.
I apologise deeply for not knowing a random bit of SW trivia that I can’t even remember was in the movie or not and having the gall to speculate about a film and franchise I enjoy; how will the fandom ever come to terms with this? I’m so sorry, everyone
