I don't actually care what Rey calls herself, but I sure do know Leia and Luke are proud

LOL on what planet is that "the strongest argument" for Rey Skywalker.
No argument is even needed. People are allowed to take their adoptive family's surname. No defense required.

I don't think they adopted her. Or should Ahsoka actually be called "Ahsoka Skywalker?" Or Luke "Luke Kenobi?"

I don't think they adopted her
Yet, they did.

I've said it before: She knew Luke, Kylo, Han, and Leia for all of, what, a year? Luke Kenobi makes as much sense. She isn't called "Rey Skywalker" until the last thirty seconds of the final movie. To me, it feels like she stole the name.

The whole sequel trilogy is takes place over a year

Go tell it on the mountain. IDGAF if she knew Luke for ten seconds or a century, they adopted her.

If she wants to be. Names aren’t copyrighted or permanent. Even on earth you could legally change your name to honor a mentor figure and nobody could stop you, and it seems like things are even more lax in GFFA

That’s not even part of the argument? Brain dead goldfish motherfuckers

The strongest (and only needed) argument is that Luke and Leia appeared and clearly gave their approval. Why is this even controversial?

If you think that’s the strongest argument I definitely understand why you don’t like the choice.

arguments that definitely happened

Rey definitely has the closest connection to the Skywalker family in the Sequels but I personally think it would be cool for the name to be passed on to other Jedi who continue Luke and Leia’s legacy, too

Has literally anyone ever actually made that argument?
Kinda. I saw someone that said she's allowed to call herself Skywalker because Kylo's spirit is in her.
Ayo.
That was probably me, and it's true. It's the only part of Rise of Skywalker that isn't totally ass
