Star Warsis finally making a change to a highly controversial decision in The Mandalorianseason 3, which bodes well for the upcoming The Mandalorian & Grogu movie. The Mandalorian is undoubtedly beloved among Star Wars movies and TV shows. In fact, many believe The Mandalorian to be one of Star Wars’ best TV shows, and both Din Djarin and Grogu have become fan-favorite characters in the franchise. However, that doesn’t mean the show hasn’t had its fair share of controversies—quite the opposite.

In addition to Grogu’s murder of the Frog Lady’s eggs and a number of other controversies, The Mandalorian experienced backlash during season 3 when Grogu was adopted and christened ‘Din Grogu.’ This implied that Din was Din Djarin’s surname, not his first name, confusing everyone. Now, some recent Star Wars updates suggest this naming convention might be getting a much-needed update, which will no doubt please the many viewers who found this revelation bewildering and disappointing.

Star Wars Just Reversed Din Djarin’s Strange Naming Convention

After The Mandalorian season 3 confusingly revealed that Grogu’s name became Din Grogu after Din Djarin adopted him, many viewers were more than a little displeased. While it wasn’t the most serious controversy in the franchise by any stretch, audiences were legitimately disappointed in this odd revelation. However, thankfully, Star Wars Encyclopedia: The Comprehensive Guide to the Star Wars Galaxy seems to officially be walking this decision back.

In Star Wars Encyclopedia, Din Djarin is at times referred to as just ‘Din,’ suggesting that this is indeed his first name after all. Prior to The Mandalorian season 3, this was common practice for many in the franchise who assumed Din was his given name—although, now, this is seemingly being canonized. However, it might not be until The Mandalorian & Grogu that Star Wars officially confirms this update to Din Djarin’s (and Din Grogu’s) name.

In Star Wars Encyclopedia , Din Djarin is at times referred to as just ‘Din,’ suggesting that this is indeed his first name after all.

Hopefully Star Wars Will Just Ignore This Mandalorian Season 3 Detail

Ideally, The Mandalorian & Grogu will confirm that Din is Din Djarin’s first name and close the book on this odd chapter of The Mandalorian. In truth, there are a number of ways Star Wars could do this successfully. On the one hand, the franchise could simply ignore the Din Grogu name and not use it again, putting the issue to bed without drawing attention to it. Alternatively, Star Wars could introduce the idea that Grogu took on Din’s first name for some reason, although that would likely only be equally confusing.

Ultimately, this one issue with Din Djarin’s name isn’t too serious. However, given how displeased many viewers were with this naming convention, Star Wars would be wise to resolve the problem and move forward. For now, though, it remains to be seen whether Star Wars will correct this odd misstep in The Mandalorian season 3.
