I guess it's shit for the new movie about older baby not Han Solo. Strange, I thought he died in their fanfict of a movie.

Doesn't seem like something that would matter except as a means to bait people into theaters. He'd still be Han Solo for 99% of important stories, much like Darth Vader stops being thought of as Anakin Skywalker for the majority of intents and purposes after RotS excepting dramatic moments like fighting Asoka.

There is another way. We could create our own subculture in the remnants, especially once Disney™ has milked it so much that the normies are bored over it and they all move on. I give it a few years tbh for them.
I remember a thread somewhere on infinite chan, maybe /v/, maybe someone has pictures? The OP was building a game engine that would be able to incorporate all the assets of older star wars games. As well as a program that'd be able to build your own star systems, I guess to travel to someday in the engine. I hope I don't have to wait to long to work with it, I'd be willing to make some systems for it.
I just remembered the OP's game was going to take place around 100 BBY, I doubt there is enough backing to get beyond creating the tools though.

I wouldn't mind Han Solo not being his real name, he's a rogue that has loads of aliases after all, if they never revealed his "real" one. Like at the start he's called "Kid" and "you" and when choosing an alias for a job he picks "Han Solo". Alternatively he picks something else then at some point in the movie he says something like "Solo? Yes that has a nice ring to it…".
The biggest danger, which is almost certain, is that Disney will give him an absolutely retarded name.

It was, but its elevated to the status of being just as great as blowing up the death star in the nu canon and also most of the mockery is because of the ship and its presumably temporary title of 'Kessel Run Millennium Falcon'. Also parsecs are a completely different form of measurement in the star wars galaxy.

<han solo's real name isn't han solo
>“Indeed,” Threepio went on. “Birth records indicate that Han’s paternal ancestry goes back to Berethron e Solo, who introduced democracy in the Corellian empire. You can easily track the birthright for the next six generations, to Korol Solo, but records from Korol’s period were destroyed in the Clone Wars and the lineage became lost. “But Korol Solo married and fathered his first son on Duro nearly sixty years ago, and because of the wars and turmoil, that son never returned home. His name was Dalla Solo, but he changed his name to Dalla Suul to hide his identity during the Clone Wars. His firstborn son was Jonash Suul, and the first son of Jonash Suul was named Han Suul—who changed his name back to Han Solo. Obviously, Han knew of his royal lineage, but for reasons that are quite beyond me, he’s also tampered with records back on Corellia in an effort to hide that lineage!”

Again, why is Disney putting so much importance on this? Sure, Anderson did make it seem more impressive, but now Disney is treating it like one of the most important things in galactic history. Hell, Kessel isn't even the asteroid-shaped Eye of Xo prison world rich in spice that we once knew. Now its just a regular humdrum orange planet with some spice mines and wookiees.
