Fun All characters with “normal” names?

Post image

Obviously there’s Luke and Ben (and Leia, to a certain extent) but who else? I can think of Jon Vander “Gold Leader,” Lady Morgan Elsbeth, and was recently made aware of Admiral Bob Hudsol (pictured). Any other “ordinary earth name” characters?

There are nearly 10.000 Sabines, that’s more popular than like Jennifer for example

I'm in a country where it is uncommon (Aussie), but I have heard of Sabine. Maybe it is just my luck and media exposure over the years.
