It's more like why name him after that one nickname he used on a backwater planet when he was hiding. ben is a diminutive of obi-wan, and it was used for leia's entire lifetime it's reasonable to assume that it was a childhood nickname of his that the prequels totally failed to reference because they were poorly written it's probably less reasonable to assume that it was a good alias considering the person most likely to know it (his apprentice/brother who knew him from the time he was a young teenager) was the person he was using it to hide from it's also a name much less likely to get a child who looks like adam driver bullied than "obi-wan" --- LittleBigPlanet is like merging dress-up with a real game. <cite>Sackgurl posted [p:931959627] in Why would ...

"Ben" is basically all Luke, Leia, and Han knew him by You can't use the argument that Leia knew Obi Wan through her adoptive fathers stories but then also say Ben is the only name she knew him by. She literally called him Obi Wan Kenobi in her distress message.

She literally called him Obi Wan Kenobi in her distress message. it is quite literally the only name luke used for obi-wan, though, and i think it's enough to grasp that the writers chose luke's viewpoint to frame things like character names and homages, whether it made perfect sense to do so or not --- LittleBigPlanet is like merging dress-up with a real game. <cite>Sackgurl posted [p:931959675] in Why would ...
