Talk:Jaina Solo Fel

✅

Height
Tee hee. Jaina is such a midget. 1.49 m = 4 ft 10.5 inches. QuentinGeorge 11:38, 16 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Is the 1.49 m designation up to date with her height in the Dark Nest series? Judging from images from the New Jedi Order (cover art and so on) she doesn't look THAT small, especially in comparison to others. Danik Kreldin 07:45, 27 January 2006 (UTC)
 * The picture of her standing next to 1.77 meter (5' 10.7") tall Zekk shows Jaina to be just a few inches shorter than him. I'd guess she's now about 5' 6" (1.68 meters) or so. Also, based on this picture, since Jacen is less than an inch taller than Zekk, we can see that Jaina is probably a few inches taller than Tenel Ka, who I don't recall ever being indicated as a midget. But my guess obviously isn't canon, so don't anybody put it in the infobox. Please. Red XIV 18:30, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
 * Yes, it sounds strange that she is even shorter than her mother and 30 cm shorter than her twin. Also in Remnant, Jaina describes Tahiri as "a little shorter than her". Bodo-Baas 19:52, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
 * I can't find the exact reference, but I believe that somewhere in Balance Point there's an exchange between Leia and Jaina that mentions that Jaina is "a few centimeters taller" than her mother. Leia is listed here as 1.56 meters, so Jaina is probably somewhere around 1.60 meters, depending on what defines "a few centimeters." Ubiqtorate 05:56, 19 May 2006 (UTC)


 * In Betrayal, Leia and Han discuss Jaina's taste for taller men, which may possibly hint a tall love interest for Jaina in the Legacy Era. If her height is accurate, it would appear she has little choice...YIIMM 09:36, 24 May 2006 (UTC)


 * The New Essential Guide to Characters puts Jaina's height at 1.49 meters. Pictures do not seem to agree with that.SithGirl132 18:33, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

Imagery
I think this article needs more imagery. We only have an image of Jaina Solo as a starfighter pilot in Twin Suns Squadron though we don't have one of her as a child or adolescent. Didn't she play an important role in the Young Jedi Knights series. During a |search on Google Images, I found lots of images of her. --User:MyNz
 * Some of those are fan images, but you are right in that we need more images of here. -- SFH 17:04, 13 Nov 2005 (UTC)


 * Perhaps, but she is way too old in the picture for the "First Corellian Insurrection". She was supposed to be nine. That picture is from the first "Essential Guide to Characters" which came out in 1995, about the same time as the "Young Jedi Knights" series, and she looks about old enough for it to be from then.
 * The Corellian trilogy came out in 1995 too. I fail to see what the publishing date has to do with it though.  They could have drawn an older Jainia in the Guide.  -Fnlayson 04:42, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Hi...I have a question. How come Jaina's picture from the New Essential Guide To Characters isn't in the article? IMO, its a really good portrayal of the character. We better see her resemblance to Leia- LordNyax113 2:04 P.M., August 1, 2007.

Quote
Does someone else besides me think that the "Sword of the Jedi" quote should be there in its entity? It's quite long though, so I didn't want to add it before asking what you guys think. --Tinwe 09:32, 13 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * I'm assuming that you meant it's entirety, but as the one who put it in, I shortened it to get the important info in. -- SFH 17:04, 13 Nov 2005 (UTC)
 * Entirety, that's right. Twelwe years of English studying and I still can't get the words right... :) Anyway, shouldn't the whole thing be somewhere in the article? --Tinwe 07:48, 14 Nov 2005 (UTC)

Zekk/Jaina Picture
Just wanted to asked TPTB why the pic of Zekk and Jaina was removed "until the article grows"? I thought it was a good pic and belonged in this article no matter how short that section is. Besides, Zekk's entry has that pic and that article is much shorter than Jaina's. Jed-eye 08:49, 4 Jan 2006 (UTC)
 * The article isn't big enough to support the picture. It just messes the page up. --Master Starkeiller 11:32, 4 Jan 2006 (UTC)

Reason for Expansion
This article can be expanded much further most notably the Jedi Training and the Yuuzhan Vong War sections. She's one of the most famous Expanded Universearticles and deserves a far better and larger article. MyNz 23:11, 6 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Picture

 * I really think the old pic. [[Image:Jainasolo.jpg]] was better, mainly because it fits our policy of preferring closeup head and shoulders pics for the character boxes. QuentinGeorge 01:16, 15 Jan 2006 (UTC)
 * Then, we can have the old pic :-). I just felt that Jaina was in need of more pictures and a picture change. Mirlen 18:44, 15 Jan 2006 (UTC)

Still a Joiner?
This is a spoiler if you haven't read Swarm War yet.

Anyway, at the end of Swarm War, it doesn't say whether or not Zekk become unjoined.. though the article does state it, I don't think the book says so. Unless I missed it. I do hope they are no longer Joiners, as that whole thing kind of annoyed me. But anyway, where does it state in the book that their minds are no longer linked?


 * Oh by the Force, the whole Joiner thing annoyed me too! I really got to like everyone in the Myrkr Strike team and then they all go crazy! Luckily it does seem that the ones who left early are recovering. Jaina and Zekk seem to be a different story for two reasons. One they were in the nest much much longer then any of the others and anyone who has read the books know what that means. And two they aren't just joined to a nest, they are joined to each other. They really truely seem to have become one mind in an even more intimate fashion than the Luke/Mara bond formed from Jedi battle melds. I think they will be able to break their nest bonds but can they break their personal bond and become two people again? I really don't know. I think what is really going to determine that is how Jag plays his cards. It is obvious that Jaina still has feelings for him and Zekk is jealous. I think that if Jag really tried to reach Jaina he could tear her away from Zekk and break the mind sharing.--Kyp-Durron 20:35, 7 July 2006 (UTC)Kyp-Durron

Pronounciation
So, how do you pronounce Jaina's name? is it:

"jane-a" as in Jane (from Tarzan);

"gina" as in vagina;

"J" as in "jippee" (see Anakin Skywalker) followed by "ina";

or something else alltogether? --BaldFett 13:47, 22 April 2006 (UTC)


 * The first one.--Darth Oblivion 18:39, 6 July 2006 (UTC)


 * I agree, it's the first one.


 * First one. User:RushinSundaws 3:05 7, July 2006


 * And I always thought it was the second one. But heck, what do I know, I'm not even native. Maybe someone should ask Tim Zahn :) --Tinwe 14:31, 30 July 2006 (UTC)


 * It's "Jay-na" Jaina Solo 17:48, 30 July 2006 (UTC)


 * The New Essential Guide to Characters gives the pronunciations.--Darth Oblivion 23:23, 15 August 2006 (UTC)


 * the other night i was watching G4 tv show cheats, and they tried acting like the "Jaina" cheat was a big deal. and the stupid host chick pronounced her name : Johna instead of Jayna. so i broke out laughing...Darth Depressis


 * I never accredited anyone on G4 with an overabundance of brains. Anyway, I believe it to be "Jay-na". I initially thought it was pronounced "Jenna", but then I pulled my head out of my ass.


 * "Jay-na", like "Jane" with an A on the end, is what the Guide to Characters indicated, and what I figured.SithGirl132 18:35, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

Betrayal paragraph
that is such appalling writing it's just not true...she's such a focal character can someone please update that with some skill for the good of Wookiepedia?

Well to be honest we don't know enough to write it up to standard...yet, can you also sign your comments. Jedi Dude

My trends
Thanks for taking after my template. I've started that and the background thing. If you don't mind, could you put the template in your own words, not copy diologe I have on mine like "Nows not the best time to state it". Sorry, but It ruins the originality of your template. Thanks! Jabbathehuttgartogg ( Rancor pit ) 19:55, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

-Sorry, mixed this talk page up with the user Jaina solo! Jabbathehuttgartogg ( Rancor pit ) 19:57, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

Spoiler warning
This page needs a spoiler warning. 69.26.85.244 03:25, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
 * Bloodlines was released over 2 months ago, so it no longer falls under spoiler guidelines. -LtNOWIS 03:32, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
 * It should, it only recently came out where I live. .  .  .  .  03:43, 4 November 2006 (UTC)

Question
If Jaina married Zekk, would she keep her last name, since apparently Zekk doesn't have a last name? Roron Corobb   17:07, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Fascinating question, but does this belong here?SithGirl132 18:37, 4 June 2007 (UTC)

Traitor Quote
Does the last sentence in the "Traitor?..." quote in the Rising Tensions section seem grammatically off to anyone else? I have no idea where it's from or I'd look it up myself. Sionay 19:10, 6 Jan 2007 (UTC)
 * that's neither here nor there. We can't edit a quote from the book. By the way, yes it is the actual quote, and no I can't believe that they fumbled on a cool sounding retort like that.Darth Balls 22:03, 6 January 2007 (UTC)
 * Quotes don't have to be grammatically perfect anyway. It's more realistic if they aren't so perfect, imo. -Fnlayson 22:10, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

Abilities?
I was just curious as to why Jaina has no Abilities section, almost every other Jedi and most of the other characters have an "Abilities" section near the personality section. Are many of Jaina's abilities unknown? Is there any real reason she does not have this section or was it just forgotten? if anyone can clear this up/fix it id appreciate it. I ask only because I don't know enough about Jaina myself. AzureAngel 13:41, 19 April 2007 (UTC)
 * I always thought the Abilities section was for abilities that were not part of the normal abilities most every Jedi possessed. Or normal abilities that the character was exceptionally more powerful in. So it just might be that Jaina hasn't yet demonstrated any special traits yet. I don't doubt she has them, but being a fighter pilot, maybe she just hasn't taken the time to hone any. - JMAS 14:00, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

Name meaning
about the Jain's hebrew meaning. as someone who speaks hebrew all the time i can proudly say that Joan ISN'T "God's gracious gift." -Henney
