The main character in the novel I'm working on is named Revan but I have been alerted to this:



Would this be in breach of copyright? Not exactly an iconic character, but would Mr Lucas sue me? It's not as if the MC is named Indiana Jones but am I best to change the name just in case?

Thanks for your help!

Names, like Titles, cannot be copyrighted, so you should be fine.

Just to add, if the editor thinks it's a problem they'll simply ask you to change it.

Thanks Naomi,

Don't think I can afford as good a lawyer as George Lucas! But I'll only change it if I have to, I've grown rather attached to the name!
