A contest, millions of applicants, and they choose Darth Caedus as Jacen Solo's sith title?! Psh, yeah, that's much better than my entry of Darth Infernus. I hate pseudo-brainy.
From the Star Wars Wookieepedia:
As revealed at starwars.com, Jacen indeed becomes a Dark Lord of the Sith in Sacrifice. There was a contest through the site where registered members could choose Jacen's Sith name. Prior to this, many believed that he might become Darth Krayt. The finalist names were: Acheron (a river in Hell for those who deny justice), Caedus (a battle of darkness), Judicar (the final judge), Paxis (bringer of peace) and Taral (ancient Sith for "he who protects"). The winning name, which appeared at the end of Sacrifice, was "Darth Caedus." Caedus is an invention based on the Latin verb cædo, cædere (derivative: "Cadaver"; the noun form of which is cæsum, not cædus) which means "to cut" or "to kill": which accurately describe Jacen's increasingly violent tactics towards civilians and his murder of his own loved ones.
Oh come on! They had Darth Judicar and passed that up?! It's the only one that seems in keeping with the sith names in the movies.
And I still like Darth Infernus best. Well, I guess it's still mine, all mine then to do as I will with it and use it in my fanfiction!
Peace, Ghani
