    Hi. My name is Lt. Commander La Forge, Chief Engineer of the Enterprise-D. What's this on my face? It's called a VISOR; I use it so I can see. What is my first name?The First Names of "The Next Generation"

      Geordi. Lt. Commander Geordi LaForge (played by LeVar Burton) is said to have been named for a friend of Gene Roddenberry, whom he had known when he was a pilot in the Army Air Corps. In Season 1, LaForge's station was at the helm of the Enterprise-D. Because of this, Gene Roddenberry found humor in the fact that a blind man was driving the ship.

    My name is Ensign Lefler. I work with Commander La Forge in Engineering. One of my first jobs was helping him solve a problem with beaming the captain back to the ship; this was during that first-contact mission with the Children of Tama. What is my first name?The First Names of "The Next Generation"

      Robin. Ensign Robin Lefler (Ashley Judd) was a member of the Enterprise-D Engineering staff. Introduced in the episode "Darmok", Lefler later became a love interest to Wesley Crusher. In the episode "The Game", they helped to stop an attempted takeover of the Enterprise-D by the Ktarians. Now an acclaimed actress, Ashley Judd cut her acting teeth on "Star Trek: TNG" as Lefler. Her movie credits include "A Time to Kill", "Kiss the Girls", and "High Crimes". Her sister Wynonna and mother Naomi make up the legendary country music duo The Judds.
