Hm. Mom and Dad must have been Star Wars fans.
Nice name, though.

That'd either mean that she's only 4-9 years old (depending on how comic time has passed relative to the real world) and was given a massive dose of growth hormones for her to reach adulthood within a few years, or one or both of her parents somehow gained access to the prequel scripts that George had locked away somewhere before he dusted them off to start making the prequels.
Not to go off-topic, but it just bugs me that he had the prequel scripts written years, if not decades, before starting production of the prequels, yet they turned out...well...less than par with the originals.
Mr_Rose:
Frankly that's because the 'original' scripts weren't written or directed by George Lucas; they were nominally his idea but the people who actually funded the production insisted on having someone competent come in and fix them. Then screwed the pooch by giving Lucas the exclusive merchandising rights, which he leveraged to buy the other rights and fund his prequels meaning there was no-one to tell him "no George, that's a dumb idea."
Black Sword:
The prequels weren't that bad. Easily better than 8 out of 10 movies released in the same year as them. Problems came from Jar Jar and Hayden's lack of charisma and lack of chemistry with Natalie Portman. Although once Anakin started going dark, Hayden's acting improved.
