[Star Wars] People that are supposed to be hidden/hiding using their real names?

The queen Padme Amidala is going to hide as one of her handmaids so she goes by Padme?

Luke is going to be hidden from Vader, but still goes by Skywalker?  Does no one think that may be a problem down the road?  I get that Vader doesn't know the name Luke, but Skywalker seems pretty unique.

Weridly enough, this is realitvely commonly used strategy in real life hiding methods.

Your name is almost certainly not unique- there are 8 billion people in the world. Even if your name is rare or obscure, odds are there will be a decent number of people who share it. As such, simply finding someone with your name won't inspire suspicion in and of itself- Aoife is a rare name. but if  Aoife Green commits a crime and is on the run, it's still obviously not a good strategy to arrest every Aoife Green in Ireland one by one. This only expands in the star wars world- when there's a million inhabited planet, even if Skywalker is vanishingly rare, there are likely still tens of thousands of skywalkers completely unrelated to Anakin.

So this is why using your real name isn't inherently a bad move, so why might it be a good idea? Well, simply enough, you're used to using it. Someone who has the same name as the queen is a coincidence, someone who accidentally uses the name of the queen and then hastily corrects herself is the queen in disguise. In these situations, any slip up might be deadly, and anything that minimises the odds of a slip up is a good thing.

If you are otherwise hiding yourself, it can be easier to simply keep the name- if anyone brings it up? "haha, yeah, hear that all the time". It's a galaxy of a million planets. There's a lot of Padmes and Skywalkers out there.
