I've never actually said the name aloud and i don't intend to either.

Are you implying that you can read a word without "thinking" its pronunciation, Flats?

 

As for Imperator I'd put the stress on the second vowel. But that's the standard English antipenultimate rule and doesn't necessarily have anything to do with Latin.

^Asinus asinorum in saecula saeculorum

playing Rome: Total War, I discover it's Imp-EH-rator

TRIARII!!! ("tree-arr-ree-ai")

 

I wouldn't think Star Wars is too much related to latin. The ideas for the names might be from latin but the idea is that the characters don't know that, thus do not necessarily have to follow the latin saying.

Latin lives on. The langauge of the world and a galaxy far far away.
