Roderick: "Did you know that 'nass' is german for 'wet'? So Boss Nass is the 'wet Boss' of the Gungans. An appropriate name for someone who rules an underwater kingdom!  :)"

I learned that in my English class, where we studied Archetypes in Star Wars, and watched the movie.  I, of course, was the expert on such things. Here is a list of what we went over, and some of them make sense, and others are just coincidences. 
 

• Luke--Apostle, Doctor--strengthens Archetype "Initiate"
• Skywalker--Pilot--strengthens archetype "Hero" 
• Han Solo--"Hand Alone" or "Lone Hand"--Strengthens archetype "Apparently Evil Figure With An Ultimately Good Heart" 
• Organa--Organic--strengthens archetype "The Earth Mother"
• Obi-Wan Kenobi--"Oh, Be One (With The Force)--strengthens archetype "Mentor"
• Darth Vader--"Dark father(German)"--strengthens "Devil Figure"
• Yoda--similar to elf god "Yoga"--"Mentor" 
• Degobah(Original spelling)--mixed around is "Be a God"--"Water vs. Desert" 

• Imperials--similar to Nazis 
• Darth Vader--Black, mechanistic--"Nature vs. Mechanistic World" 
• Stormtroopers--White on the outside, black on the inside--"Apparently good person with an ultimately evil heart" 
• Leia--white, very concealing--"Platonic Ideal" 
• Luke--White, young--"Initiate"
