    The FO is not "Anti Force Sensitive" like the GE was. They let Force Sensitive people in all branches serve.

    While I think it would be cool to reveal a name change later. having a twist much like KOTOR, however.... Obiwan through the force calls out to her... I would think that her name is truly Rey....

    Yeah...but @SKB has a point. They would identify Finn's midichlorians levels if he was FS long ago. And they certainly wouldnt train the FS people in Sanitation.

    True, but if it really was Obi-Wan's Force ghost or the Force in general, he/it would know that's the name she identifies herself with. They could still attempt to give her a new name. I hope not though.

    Rey isn't her name, and I'm not sold on "Kira" either, as I think it was only a placeholder in the early days. I'm absolutely certain that it's not Rey, BECAUSE, when Han asked her name and she told him, he seemed slightly amused at the choice of name...as if he knew different. He almost acted like; "Why the hell did you choose THAT name??" which immediately stuck out to me the very first time I saw the scene on the screen...and also because Rey was wearing Dosmit Raeh's helmet on Jakku...of which she chose the name variation. What's her real name?? Unknown...FOR NOW!! :)

    Han was rather perceptive. He even saw right through Finn before he confessed.

    Kira was just a production codename for the character of Rey, just as Blue Harvest was for ROTJ. Codenames are used to throw snooping journalists off track from learning secret details about films, characters and stories. Codenames are also used to disguise films in production to keep costs down, as goods suppliers often mark up their prices to film makers who they believe have high budgets and would pay higher than usual prices for goods, services and supplies.

    He clearly wasn't buying any of it. Especially the amused look he gave them when he commented on them being fugitives.

    Her real name is Ramen Noodles named by Unkar, but Ramen shortened it to Rey cause she hated those salty portions of death traps.
