  • On the tv show "BattleStar Gallactica", what was Lieutenant Starbuck's first name?


  • And with this he joins Dr. Who, who also doesn't have a first name...


  • Actually, it was mentioned once or twice during the show. He does have a first name. Just thought no one remembers it. -PG


  • As far I can tell, the producers never gave him a first name. He's either Lt. Starbuck or Starbuck. Totally unrelated, but I found that Mr. Spock from Star Trek has a first name. But no one can pronounce it. =)


  • He doesn't have one. This is very slightly vaguely proven by: My name's Andrea Pulaski. Like, what's yours?" "Starbuck." "Starbuck. Is that your first name or your last name?" "What?" "Starbuck--is that, like, your first name or your last name?" "It's the only name I've got!" "Oh." Silence. From Rescuing Andrea, a Battlestar Galactica fan story by Samantha (fiction!): http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Quasar/1767/ANDREA.HTM


  • At the Hollywood Expo in Plano, TX on 15 July 2001, Dirk Benedict (who played Starbuck) was asked this question. His answer was that the character, as written, never had a first name, but Benedict opined that if Starbuck did have a first name, it would probably be "Studs." Got a big laugh. :-)
