Hi, my name is Jaina Johnson and...

How to pronounce my name...

Most people don't seem to have any trouble with this, but there are still a few who do, so here you go:

Jaina-
My name is kind of like "Jana", but the "ai" part sounds like the word "rain."

How I got my first name...

Remember the movie Star Wars? Well, it didn't just end after "Return Of The Jedi". There is a long list of Star Wars books set in a timeline that takes place during the "years" following ROTJ. These books, brought to vivid life by some of the world's masterful Sci-fi writers, continue the ongoing adventures of the original movie characters and of course, introduces readers to new ones as well. That's where my name comes in. Turns out, Han Solo and Princess Leia eventually get married and have three children: Jacen and Jaina (who are twins), and a few years later, Anakin. So my Mom and Dad named me after this complex and wonderfully exciting character who grew up and lives in the rich, vast universe created by none other than the legendary George Lucas.

How I got my middle name...

This one's easy. My Mom chose my middle name to be Michele in honor of her big sister, Michele Miller (my Aunt). Oh, notice how my Aunt Michele spells her name with only one "L"? I think that's cool, too.

Take a second to pause your mouse over each of the thumbnails in the gallery below. Some of them will have a "pop-up" caption with some neat info about its picture.

Note: Not all of the thumbnails have captions -I won't tell you which ones, so you'll have to find them for yourself!  :o)
