foaming at the mouth about ahsoka. Star Wars has a nasty habit of naming their character generic Indian names to sound exotic (Padme- Padma, you can throw a stray cat in India and it'll hit a Padma at some point; Bodhi Rook, Shaak Ti- Shakti, a Hindu goddess) but Ahsoka is just complete other levels of funny.

Ahsoka is named for the Indian emperor Asokha who was a pretty great man who facilitated the spread of Buddhism into China and East Asia. He was known as a tolerant man who cared deeply for the arts and scholarly matters.

He also spent his 20s waging war against literally all of his neighbors, only stopping when they surrended before ransacking and plundering their resources. Those resources fueled his war machine and his empire for years. Asokha famously stopped his rampages after he burned Kalinga to the ground and had a whole "what have I done?" moment. It was after he conquered everything, saw the costs of the quest he had to become king of the world that made him change.

an interesting name with history, and no parallels done whatsoever.
