Phewfus 11/19/19 3:47:44 PM #28:	Trying to use the movies as justification for what a characters name is in Star Wars of all things is weird. Tons of side and background characters had no names mentioned in the movies but were given names later on in Star Wars compendiums and action figures, comics, ect. that came out prior to the prequels.
