Cool. I never really knew there was an actual story behind it.

ya before they came up with jango im sure it was named that for an entirely different reason than what it is now
i am inclined to agree with mel's theory

Actually prior to the "Jango past" I thought the ship was named Slave I to show that Boba had no real attachment to anything. He saw it as merely a means to an ends, although I think it's truly one of the only possessions that Boba is fond of - but is prepared to sacrifice if neccessary.

Yep, before that it was Jaster Mereels, I believe. Bounty Hunter, great game.

Bah, wiki would just change it back. They do that. You go to change an article to be correct and they change it back. Happens to me every single time. I gave up. That's one of the reasons not to trust wikis because they're not always accurate. I use the official source: starwars.com's databank. I also trust my memory to be correct on most things. I'm like a sort of walking wiki; I know most the answers, and whatever I don't know I can lie about.

Awesome! Thanks, I knew that if anyone knew the answer to this, it would be somebody here. Much thanks to therealmccoy and Miba for your respective input!

Somebody should add that info to the Slave I wiki entry. I would do it, but I don't really have any knowledge of the story behind it.

it's named Slave I because after Jango's mandalorians were defeated on galidraan he was sold by the governor into slavery for like 6 years

Yeah, that's the correct answer. That takes place in Open Seasons. The naming of the ship takes place in the game Bounty Hunter.

Which is why it's name is Slave 1 or why it changes colors?
