I read an interesting story once, about how R2-D2 got his name. A few years before Geo. Lucas made Star Wars, he made a nice little comedy, "American Graffiti". (Which has a Harrison Ford cameo, btw). All the time he was working on the film, he was also writing "Star Wars". He kept a notebook with him, and would add notes or write ideas as they came to him. For several reasons, when filming, the visual and the audio are recorded simultaneously, but separately. This is why, when the Director says "Action", the assistant says "Scene 6, take 2" and "SNAPS" that clacker; The "SNAP" helps them to synch up the audio in post-production. During the post-production phase for "Graffiti", Lucas was working with the sound editor, and while editing one scene, the editor turned to an assistant, and asked him to grab a dialogue reel, that they would synch with it. He wanted the second dialogue track on the second reel of tape recorded for the scene in question. In editing speak he turned to the assistant and said . . . "Spool up R2, D2." (Reel 2, dialogue #2) That caught Lucas' ear. He liked the sound of it and R2 got his name. Maybe real, maybe rumor, but I like it.

R2 has one of the most recognisable noises in all of Star Wars, great video :)

His voice is as iconic as James Earl Jones, Christopher Lee and Samuel L. Jackson.

Let's face it. Without R2, the "Star Wars" movies would've been way different in more ways than one. Best robot buddy ever!

Maybe he forgot the 2003

I think you missed one. The 2003 animated Clone Wars. R2 was in it even if it was a brief scene.

Who wishes r2d2 had a stand alone Star wars film?

Imagine if R2-D2 will join Pinocchio, Violet Violet Parr, Phineas Flynn, Isabella Garcia-Shapiro, Kevin Wolfy, Honeymaren, Ms. Marvel, Patch Dalmatian, Wilbur Robinson, Penny Forrester, Hiro Hamada, Ginger, Tick Tock Crocodile and Lavagirl to save DisneyTown
