In this Star Wars theory video, we go Star Wars explained style and take a look at the origins of the name 'Skywalker'. How did Shmi Skywalker get given her name? We saw her prominently in Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace and again once more in Attack of the Clones but the mother of the Chosen One Anakin who would later become Darth Vader in Revenge of the Sith, is shrouded in mystery.
This theory video explores how she got given the name. The theory involves the Chiss after details emerged in Timothy Zahn's novel Chiss Alliances about how force-sensitive Chiss female children are given the title of Sky-Walker. Of course the Chiss is the species of Grand Admiral Thrawn who is currently set to make a comeback but in live-action form in the Mandalorian universe - either in Star Wars: Ahsoka (the spin-off where Rosario Dawson will reprise the role of the Togruta ex-Jedi as we saw in the Mandalorian Season 2 Chapter 13) or in the Mandalorian Season 3 - or both and maybe even in Rangers of the New Republic and the Book of Boba Fett, too!
Anakin and Grogu (Baby Yoda) were both born in the same year and the backstory of the Skywalker name might be explored by Lucasfilm in an upcoming project, or in the future. Qui-Gon Jinn asked a lot about Anakin in the Phantom Menace and looked into his midichlorian count but he didn't enquire about Shmi.
We haven't seen the last of Anakin though because the upcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi series will see Hayden Christensen reprise the role of Anakin / Darth Vader 10 years after the events of Revenge of the Sith with Ewan McGregor playing the role of Obi-Wan Kenobi on Tatooine during his exile while Yoda is on Dagobah. It's expected that Liam Neeson's Qui Gon will return as a force-ghost or force-ghost. Star Wars: Obi-Wan Kenobi was one of many new shows that was announced by Kathleen Kennedy during Disney Investor Day 2020 and may even see the return of Ray Park as Darth Maul.
