Rebel Blockade Runner:
# Who are all those imprisoned Rebel Fleet Troopers in Tantive IV ?

Tatooine:
# Power Droid in Lars Homestead

Mos Eisley
# Who's the Swoop Mercenary who nearly crashed into the Ronto ?
# The Mos Eisley guy: the one that keeps coming back for more
# R1 Droid at Mos Eisley & several other Droids.
# When the Landspeeder has stopped at Chalmun's Cantina and Luke asks Ben Kenobi how they got passed the Troopers, you can see a Bespin Air-Taxi. Underneath the Speeder is a small man. Who is he?

Mos Eisley Cantina: More than 70 characters have got their proper names. Due to the early Elstree scenes, there are still several characters who don't have a name. Most of the time, they're seen on the left side.
# The left side in the Cantina is terribly dark. There are three Spacers. One is Danz Borin, but who are the other two? One wears a yellow spacesuit and even sits next to Borin.
# Also in the dark spot is "The Colonel". He's a Lutrillian like Solomahal.
# There's a strange spacer (no. 3) behind Ben in the Cantina when he's talking to Han.
# There is the unknown Moisture Farmer with the white blouse who stood next to the Tonnika Sisters. He often gets a fanon name on websites but it's unofficial.
# There is an ugly balding guy standing next to the Tonnika Sisters. Who's he?
# Who are the 2 guys who walk in the Cantina before Ben, Luke and the Droids enter.

Streets of Mos Eisley:
# All of Jabba's Henchmen had been named in Docking Bay 94, except for the big one with his beard. Who is he?
# Rodians in Docking Bay 94.
# Who is the Saurin in the Mos Eisley streets. You can see him when Garindan starts to follow Ben and Luke.
# "Ralltiir Freighter Captain" (given this name by Decipher)
# Several Mos Eisley residents

Death Star:
# In the Death Star Conference Room are the most prominent Officers present. However, there is one man that has not been named. He is balding and not very young (not Officer Cass !). Perhaps he's Motti's or Bast's aide since he can also be seen (his back) in the central control tower.
# Officer in Death Star Conference Room who sits with his back to the door opening (not Cass).
# When the Falcon has just arrived in the Death Star there is a scène where an Officer without any rank insignia's says to Stormtroopers "Come with me". He should be a Stormtrooper Officer.
# Who are the Scanning Crew who checked the Falcon for life readings ?
# Lt. Pol Treidum is accompanied in the control Room by an unknown Officer. This is the only time an Officer is seen with only two Rank Insignia markings.
# Many older unknown Officers pass by (one ISB as well) while the heroes march to AA-23. Perhaps off-duty Pilots or NCO's.
# Officer who gets shot down in the cellbay of AA-23.

Rebel Alliance:
# Who is the Rebel Officer who accompanied Leia when she kissed Luke good luck on Yavin 4? Is he from Alderaan? What is his rank? I don't think he's got a very high rank, since we cannot see him in the Briefing or during the battle. Perhaps he commanded another department of the Yavin base? I do remember seeing him when Luke returned after the battle.
# Who's the engineer who asks Luke if he wants a new Artoo Unit?
# Who is the one who takes care of Artoo after the Battle?
# What are Garven Dreis' black Arfive Unit and Wedge's Artoo Unit called?

# What are the names of the Communication Technicians / Officers who follow the Yavin Battle from Base One?
# At the Celebration on Yavin 4 stands an unknown Officer at the right. He's got no beard or moustache.
# During the Celebration there is also a very stern looking technician in the back and a female one as well who hands the medals to Dodonna. Who are they?

The Empire Strikes Back
Hoth:
# In the Echo Base are several Rebel Officers without a name. There is an older, balding Rebel Major who can be seen when Han tells Leia about the Probe Droid
# There is also a Rebel General who can be seen when Star Destroyers were spotted in Sector 4.
# Not only does R-3PO wonder around in the Echo Base, there is another Protocol Droid at Echo Base.
# Shawn Valdez talks to two other Soldiers. Who are they ?
# Who are all the Rebel Pilots, except for Kesin Ommis, Hobbie, Wes Janson and Dak Ralter. Who from these Pilots are Tarrin Datch, Zev Kabir, Kit Valent & Tenk Lenso ?
# Who is the Rebel Trooper who fired the Atgar Anti Vehicle Laser Cannon?
# Who is the Rebel Trooper Officer who shouted "Come on!". Is he Colonel Ledick Firest?
# What's the name of the Snowtrooper Officer who entered Veers' Cockpit ?

Imperial Fleet:
# Who are the Holographic Officers? One of them is Needa ...
# Who's the older Officer who stands next to Needa? He could be Needa's Lieutenant.

# At the end of ESB, when the Falcon has escaped, there is an Officer behind Piett. He wears an insignia with 8 squares and 1 Code Cylinder. He should be a General.

Cloud City:
# On Cloud City many Wing Guards, Ugnaughts and residents haven't got a name ...
# What about the Protocol Droid in Background (not E-3PO) when Lando invites his guests for a little refreshment. What about the children in that scène ?
# What about the man who wears the same outfit as Lobot ?

Alliance:
# What type of ships are in the Rebel Fleet at end of ESB ? There is the Redemption, several Medium Transports, Y-Wings and X-Wings. What type ar the other Bulk Freighters? Assault Frigates?

Warwick Davis's TPM character's name is Weazel. And ther is a moisture farmer in the cantina in ANH named Ariq Joanson. I don't know if he's visible or not in the movie though.

Hi ! Thx for the replies :)

- The Ice Cream man is known as Willrow Hood
http://www.decipher.com/starwars/cardlists/cloudcity/light/images/tibannagasminer.gif

- Warwick plays two characters in TPM. Weasel sits in Watto's box, but I think the other character he plays is someone else. But it could be one and the same

- Ariq Joanson hails from 'Tales from Mos Eisley Cantina' but has never been officially named in ANH. He often gets credited as being in the movie and I wouldn't mind, but it's never been confirmed.

Hi 'Yoda'. Sweitt was supposed to be an Ongree Senator, but didn't make it in the final movie. Well no ... K-3PO is too obvious :p I really meant in the Echo Base hangar.

Ewoks in AT-ST along with Chewie
I'm almost positive the black one's name is Nicki. I get this from the credits and I think they made a figure back in the 80's too.
# The left side in the Cantina is terribly dark. There are three Spacers. One is Danz Borin, but who are the other two? One wears a yellow spacesuit and even sits next to Borin.
I'm just making sure...that's one of Greedo's buddies from his story in Tales of the Mos Eisley Cantina, right? I know he had two, but I can only remember Spurch "Warhog" Goa right now.:p

# "Big" Mouse Droid
Although it does look like a "Big" Mouse droid, if you look closely it's more of a meld between a mouse droid and a Treadwell. It has the Treadwell's binocs on top of it.
Also, one last question. What is the name of the Duros seen in Jabba's Palace? He appears to the right of Ephant Mon when Han and Luke are being shoved to Jabba after the Rancor's death.

Nothing much to say here. Just wanted to see if you knew that that guy was also in the cantina.
# Human on Sail Barge who confronts Luke
Now I KNOW he's got a name. I think it was mentioned in the Visual Dictionary, though I'm not sure. It began with either a V or a Z...

Hi Jawenko! Thx for dropping by :)

- Nicki is not the black Ewok. He's the Ewok that makes a tumbling during the celebration at Endor. His name was revealed in a SW Insider
- It could be Warhog Goa, but it's not confirmed that's actually him :)
- Yep, the bearded guy's visible at the far end at the left side of the bar
- The human (is it Gailid you're thinking of?) is visible at the 2nd Skiff.

- The Duros in Jabba's Palace is actually a she and her name is Leslomy Tacema.

Also, one last thing. I've found that the Imperial General standing behind Piett (looks like Chevy Chase) when he gives the order to deploy the fleet in ESB is played by the same extra as the Rebel who leans over Lando when the Rebel Fleet is going into hyperspace in RotJ!

No, that's Taym Dren-garen :)

The Rebel who sits behind Lando is Colonel Cracken - who later commands one of the Quad Lasers (deleted scene). I could be mistaken, but I don't think that Officer already has a name from 'TESB'.

I found another one. What's the name of the Ankura Gungan walking to the left of Jar Jar Binks during Padme's funeral march in Revenge of the Sith? There's a very strong possibility it's Boss Nass, but the databank refutes that idea by not telling us if it's him in RotS.

Jabba's second Rodian is named Kulu. The humans on the Sail Barge are Gailid and Vilson McThornz. Jabba's H'nemthe is Yamnoss and his Aqualish is Russwall. The Nikto in blue on the skiff is Beytmun. The Geranian on the skiff is not me. He is in white and I'm in black. The "Cantina Dude" is Ivoctovitch, not Warhog Goa.
the Gamorreans are Ortugg, Rogua, Gartogg, Ghana Gleemort, Thok, Thug and Warlugg. The balding, ugly Cantina patron is... Evazan!

Warwick's second Mos Espa character is Grimey. The Pacithip in Watto's Box is Shakks. Gree's second-in-command is Lt. 4971. Shu Mai's consort on Geonosis is Qui Zhu. The Ewok in the AT-ST is Icky Ted. Needa's Lieutenant is Xdaia. The Y-wing pilot with the bat sign is J'ef Hsu, and the sharp-faced A-wing pilot is Commander Farrel.

Please stop using all these fanon names! These come from Red6 and are unofficial names. They were made up by people who were trying to be funny. These names were never confirmed in any source.

If you do know in what official source these names appear, please let me know.

Gailid does not appear on the Sail Barge, he's on the 2nd Skiff. Yamnoss is the H'Nemthe in the Holiday Special. No ... look better in the Cantina for a real bald guy. Evazan was not naturally bald. Farrell is the pilot who goes into the Death Star and flies away on Lando's command. He's not the guy with the sharp face.

Please, these are not official names (except for Gailed, Yamnoss and the Gamorreans). Official means that they have been published bij Lucasfilm somewhere / somehow. Most sources you have given are not official. I have a copy of the SW to Jedi documentary and it's never proven that these are those characters. I've never heard those names spoken in that documentary either.

I appreciate your help, but unless you can proof that these names are official (and some of them surely aren't because they appeared at Red6 for the first time), the info is useless. So I must ask you kindly not to use unofficial names anymore.

This blog is sort of dead, but I wanted to point out that in the Yavin briefing room scene in ANH, Gold Leader Jon "Dutch" Vander does appear, and seemed like the only pilot present who is seen later during the Battle of Yavin. But I believe the guy standing behind Gold Leader, just off to the right is Naytaan. The guy's got a distinctive face, and they just look very similar. It may also make sense that he's standing near the only other pilot who appears later.
