For Leia to name her son Ben Solo is the greatest honor, with Obi-Wan's memory able to live on in someone she loves. It is a sweet and moving gesture, and it retroactively addresses the questions that lingered around the Ben Solo name. After all, why name your child after someone who was important to someone else?
While this could have been a coincidence, Star Wars comics have revealed it isn't. Ben Solo was named after Obi-Wan Kenobi, a fact he hated since he felt like he was supposed to live up to the promise of an ancient Jedi he never knew.
Ben Solo is the son of Leia Organa and Han Solo, born in 5 ABY on the day the Galactic Civil War officially came to an end. He was named after Obi-Wan “Ben” Kenobi, the Jedi Master who aided in Leia's rescue from the Death Star only five years earlier.
Affiliation(s) Zayne Skywalker was a force-sensitive Jedi Knight, and the son of Ben Solo and Rey Palpatine, a dyad in the force as the grandson of the Chosen One and the son of power force wielders, who became a legendary warrior and hero for the galaxy in the decades after the Battle of Exegol.
Initially unknown to Ben, Rey forms a dyad in the Force with him. The dyad is an unbreakable Force-bond that makes them one in the Force, despite being born as two physically separated individuals. Thus, despite not being related by blood, Rey is Ben's other half, making her his "soulmate" or "twin of the Force".
Kylo Ren is the moniker taken up by Ben Solo after he is turned toward the Dark Side and joins the cause of the First Order. He takes the name partially from “Ren,” the pseudonym used by the leader of the Knights of Ren, a Dark Side-inclined group of Force-sensitive warriors.
after his father, but his mother, Leia decided to name the boy after his maternal grandfather, Anakin Skywalker. She wanted to redeem her father's name, and she also thought she could overcome her fear of Darth Vader by seeing, through her son, what her father could have been.
She also knows Obi-Wan, and she knows him well. Her holographic plea for help, already iconic, will never be the same. She knows Obi-Wan's real name as well as his alias of “Ben.” When Luke comes barging into her cell and says, “I'm here with Ben Kenobi,” Leia jumps off the bunk in an instant.
The short answer is that creator George Lucas had no idea Leia would end up becoming Darth Vader's daughter.
A Skywalker by blood, Leia Organa is known to be Force sensitive.
However, rather than be an oversight or plot hole, Leia might not have remembered old Ben for one sinister reason. This has to do with Ben's Jedi powers, namely the mind trick. As he grew older, he'd use it on Stormtroopers to protect Luke Skywalker.
Anakin secretly marries Naboo Senator Padmé Amidala at the end of the film. In Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith (2005), Padme dies giving birth to twins, Luke and Leia. Luke is raised by Beru and Owen Lars on Tatooine. Leia is raised by Senator Bail Organa and Queen Breha Organa on Alderaan.
In The Phantom Menace, when Qui-Gon Jinn meets tiny Anakin Skywalker and his mother, he goes on about how the Force is like, crazy strong with Anakin or whatever, and then asks his mother about Anakin's dad. Shmi Skywalker is pretty clear in her answer: There isn't a father. She was impregnated by the Force.
Rey is Anakin's half sister, and Palpatines relations to Rey through the force. Rey is a genetic experiment/force experiment of immaculate conception orchestrated by palpatine. So Rey is Palpatines daughter or grand daughter, in a metaphorical sense. The same way Anakin is Palpatines son through the force.
A master of the Force and a seeker of arcane lore, Snoke seduced young Ben Solo when the Force-sensitive boy desperately needed a teacher. Snoke's influence would prove critical when Luke Skywalker finally agreed to make Ben one of his new Jedi apprentices.
He trained as a Jedi under his uncle Luke Skywalker but was turned to the dark side of the Force by Supreme Leader Snoke and the resurrected Darth Sidious/Emperor Palpatine. He became the Master of the Knights of Ren and served the First Order as its warlord, which he then took over after assassinating Snoke.
In a new excerpt, it's revealed that the names of Rey's parents are Dathan and Miramir. Dathan is the dad and Miramir the mother, if you were wondering; it's not always clear with these names from a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away.
Senator Padmé Amidala of the planet Naboo became pregnant during the Clone Wars with her husband, Jedi Knight Anakin Skywalker, as the father. She gave birth to twins, Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa.
In the canon comic Darth Vader No. 25, it is revealed that Palpatine somehow used the Force to manipulate midichlorions to impregnate Shmi Skywalker.
Anakin is married to Padmé Amidala Naberrie, the former Queen of Naboo, who later became an outspoken senator in the Galactic Senate; their wedding is kept secret as the Jedi Code forbids attachments. Anakin and Padmé have two children together: they are named Luke and Leia.
Well, now she has one, as new tie-in novel Shadow of the Sith by Adam Christopher reveals Rey's parents are named Dathan and Miramir, as shown in an excerpt published in USA Today.
Powerfully Force-sensitive, Rey trains to be a Jedi under siblings Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa, and faces adversaries such as Kylo Ren, Supreme Leader Snoke and the resurrected Emperor Palpatine—who is revealed to be her grandfather in The Rise of Skywalker.
Although Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker concludes with Rey choosing the name of Skywalker and completing her path to becoming a Jedi, it's possible that she was actually the reincarnation of Anakin all along.
Darth Vader didn't learn he had a daughter until Return of the Jedi, when he stood before Emperor Palpatine. The Emperor's power probed Luke's mind, attempting to goad him to fall to the dark side, and he discovered Leia's existence.
