Nigh Impossible to verify, but I suspect that the droid's name is a reference to the programming command ' GOTO'. The command itself has often been derided by 'advanced' programmers, the thought being that GOTO shouldn't be used unless no other option is available. Over-use is often considered a sign that the programmer is a novice. The fact that the droid has a dark-side alignment leads me to wonder if there was maybe an in-joke that 'GOTO is Evil!' or something similar going on. -Graptor
