Princess Leia Organa is a fictional character and one of the main protagonists in the Star Wars franchise, portrayed in films by
Leia Organa-Skywalker
Leia Amidala Skywalker (portrayed by Carrie Fisher) is the wife of Han Solo, the mother of Ben Solo, the younger twin sister of Luke Skywalker, the daughter of Anakin Skywalker and Padmé Amidala, and the granddaughter of Shmi Skywalker, raised by Bail and Breha Organa of Alderaan.
Originally Answered: Why didn't Leia change her last name to Skywalker on The Force Awakens? Because she was raised an Organa. Her whole life, Leia was an Organa raised on Alderaan. She didn't identify with the Skywalker name.
Leia was adopted into the Royal family of Alderaan by Bail, who's also a prince consort aside from being a Senator and his wife, Queen Breha Organa. With this, the Skywalker daughter effectively became the Princess of Alderaan, hence why she's called Princess Leia.
Through adoption, Leia Amidala Skywalker became known as Leia Organa, Princess of Alderaan.
During the iconic opening moments of Star Wars: A New Hope, Darth Vader has a tense confrontation with Princess Leia, an adversary who, unknown to him, is actually his daughter. Despite participating in Leia's interrogation, the Sith Lord doesn't uncover his familial connection with the rebellious royal.
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.
So, is Leia a Jedi? While Leia was just as strong with the Force as her brother Luke, she never became a Jedi. Still, she did begin her training. Shortly after the Battle of Endor, the twins began training together, with Luke guiding Leia through meditative practices and sparring exercises.
Han Solo marries Princess Leia and they have three children: twins named Jacen and Jaina, and a younger son named Anakin. Luke reestablishes the Jedi Order, marries a non-movie (but fan favorite) redheaded Force-wielder named Mara Jade, and they have a son, Ben Skywalker (named in honor of Obi-Wan “Ben” Kenobi).
5. Love triangles and awkwardness — The Empire Strikes Back wasn't the first inkling that Luke and Leia had feelings for each other. Their romance was heavily alluded to in A New Hope, what with all of Luke's suggestive facial expressions to Han whenever Leia was around, and Han's clear attraction to Leia.
The reason Leia likely remembers Padmé is that she could sense her mother's emotions at the time of the senator's passing. Luke didn't possess the same ability as his sister and inherited their father's Force potential. This links with Luke's desire to follow Anakin's Jedi path.
Leia's journey yields a time dilation of 62.6 days; however Luke experiences a time dilation of 700.8 days. The students concluded that Luke is therefore 1.75 years younger than Leia, possibly rendering them the first twins ever to have more than a year between their ages.
The son of Han Solo and Leia Organa, Ben Solo was seduced by the dark side of the Force and renamed himself Kylo Ren: leader of the Knights of Ren, champion of the First Order, and apprentice to Supreme Leader Snoke.
Whose Lightsaber Does Rey Have at the End of The Rise of Skywalker? In addition to her own yellow lightsaber, Rey Skywalker has Leia's lightsaber and the Skywalker lightsaber (which belonged to Anakin, Luke and Rey herself) at the end of The Rise of Skywalker.
Eventually, Skywalker went into exile on Ahch-To and took the saber with him, storing it inside his hut. After Skywalker's death, his Force spirit gave Organa's lightsaber to Rey, as he believed Organa would want the Jedi Padawan to have her weapon.
First, she admitted that she didn't really care about the Force. Thus, if she went with Luke, she would be doing it for the sake of being with Luke, not because she was following the will of the Force. However, more importantly, Leia refused to be a Jedi because Darth Vader's power had scared her.

In terms of raw potential power, Luke and Leia have always been roughly equal. That said, it is potentially possible, if she trained harder than Luke, and or has access to better training than Luke, she could, given enough time, surpass Luke's powers.
Anakin ultimately fulfilled his role as the Chosen One and brought balance to the Force, fulfilling Qui-Gon Jinn's belief in the prophecy that foretold Anakin's destiny. Accepting his fate, Anakin joined his Jedi mentors in death by becoming one with the Force.
Yes. In the book 'Tatooine Ghost', Leia learns of Anakin's life prior to his evolution into the Darth Vader personae. This revelation leads her to forgive him. She even named her third child in memory of her father.
Anakin was actually the result of immaculate conception, so he doesn't have a father. His mother, Shmi Skywalker, conceived her child without a male partner, and instead Anakin was created through the Force.
Darth Vader never knew he had twins until that final battle on the second Death Star. The force ghost of Obi Wan had warned Luke to bury his understanding of Leia deep or Vader would be able to sense his feelings.
While their affection had to remain hidden, the two kept in frequent contact, even throughout the Clone Wars. But despite this, Anakin found out that Padme was pregnant only a couple of weeks before the twins were born. So, why did it take so long for her to tell him?
