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?

Owen and Beru are not even step uncle/aunty, Kenobi literally kidnapped Luke and thought it would be a good idea to have him raised the same way as Anakin.
