Years ago, I read David Gerrold's 'The Making Of Star Trek'. One of the passages that stuck with me was about a memo the studio circulated to the writers regarding proper names for male Vulcans. It went something like, 'Using the names of Spock and Sarek as models, names of male Vulcans should all have five letters, starting with S and ending with K.' There followed a list of names like Satik, Sotok, Selek, etc.
One of the writing staff returned a memo to the studio along the lines of, 'All people who produce science fiction shows for television should have names following the pattern: Roddenstein, Roddenowicz, Roddenberg....'
