Humans are the most common species in the galaxy, though they do not comprise a majority of the sentient species found amongst the stars. Possibly native to Coruscant, humans are found in many systems and it is unknown where they first originated.
Names are a product of culture, and with humans spread across so many planets, there are many different names that would all qualify as properly human sounding, so feel free to get creative!
Good Human Names
A good human name is one that both sounds familiar and is distinctly different from what you would encounter in everyday life. Luke is a normal name, but paired with Skywalker it becomes something different, something more.
