How did Obi-Wan ever think this was a good "cover name" while he hid away in exile for 20 years???

It obviously worked. He was not found out by the dark side. The people of Tattouen (sp?) sorta knew who he was but...they really didn't care as far as we know.

Hell, that was fucking brilliant compared to hiding Luke Skywalker with Owens.

My theory is that they knew Padme died and assumed incorrectly that the children died, too. Or maybe it hurt Vader so much to lose Padme, he didn't really want to know.

Maybe Kenobi was as common as Smith?

I don't think. The most common last name in the Star Wars universe in Antilles.

I bet the Imperial discussion went like this:

Officer: We have considered that they may be hiding on Tatooine.
Emperor: Tatooine?! Tatooine? What kind of fucking morons do you think these people are? Shit. I mean, really. No....god, I can't even stop laughing. Kill this bastard.
*Vader snuffs officer*
Emperor: Tatooine. Goddamn that was funny. Is he dead? Shit, I love my job.

Skywalker had to survive so his daddy could lure him to the dark side one day. Kenobi had to survive to teach him stuff. The Dark Side is as arrogant as a Gallagher, so they didn't think they would be a threat.

No, No, that can't be either. The second most common name was MoonBeamDestroyer.

There was still some good in Vader, so maybe he wasn't looking for his son, which he didn't even know he had.

As for Kenobi, I don't think he had too many interactions with other beings while on Tatooine, just like Yoda on Dagobah.

and the same people who sued luke of the 2 live crew (for originally calling himself luke skywalker) will sue you too

..funny thing is luke claimed to have gotten the name because of his ability to slam dunk a basketball
