    It will have to be through Shmi's paternal line if it happens.

    The only way for Rey being confirmed as a Skywalker would be by marriage.

    No.

    As I have noted in the past, there is an entire branch of the Skywalker family that we know absolutely nothing about.

    We know that said branch exists because of the fact that Skywalker was Shmi's maiden name, making it entirely possible for Rey to be descended through a male sibling of hers.

    Why can't she be her own character? With her own backstory, her own parents.

    If anyone is interested Daisy is doing interviews this week, tv interviews are scheduled for Wednesday (26th). Although it's for her Ophelia film its probably more than likely that she will chatting Star Wars and TRoS too.

    She can be, but with the title of Episode IX being what it is, with said episode being the ultimate conclusion of the Episodic (Skywalker) Saga, and with her being the protagonist of the Sequel Trilogy as a whole, the simplest narrative avenue is for her to be a Skywalker through Shmi's paternal line.

    Unless she is Schmi.

    If Anakin is Son Of Rey and Kylo, how do you hide Anakin from a Palpatine in the future?
    You send her and her baby to tat in the past.

    It depends on the genre. However, Star Wars doesn't do time travel. Or it's done in a way that doesn't effect the timeline. *looks at Ashoka*

    Well it would be sad to know Rey dies to Sand People anyway.

    Having Rey be a random who takes the name Skywalker is much more simple

    I'd rather she's just not a Skywalker at all if that's the case. Anakin's Skywalker bloodline is meant to be legendary, not some name you can pick up like milk at a corner store.

    What I do not understand about theories like this one is... then why not to make of her Leia’s or Luke’s daughter?
    Even more so because in this kind of scenario (that of a cadet line, let’s say) there’s almost any emotional pay off. Surely less than that Rey Solo or a Rey as Luke’s daughter would have put on table, story wise. I honestly don’t see the point.

    Same goes for the clone theory.

    Or she’s just herself and it’s all about a legacy by virtue, not blood, or she’s the kid of someone we already know, or do something really crazy.

    Jason Ward and Making Star Wars got a pretty nice shout-out on the most recent episode of the Full of Sith podcast from co-host Bryan Young, who recognized Jason's credibility and the legitimacy of his (Jason's) sources even though he (Bryan) doesn't follow Jason's reporting because he (Bryan) doesn't want to be spoiled.
