According to Jedi records, Cammean was born in 35 BBY on the planet Kuat. In 34 BBY, after the infant had been weaned and was beginning to walk, he was surrendered to the Jedi Order and admitted to the Jedi Academy. At this time the Order felt it imperative to rename the child, to that end his name was altered from Cammean Kuat to Cammean J’Rae Vestus.
