Meet Finn, Rey, BB-8 and Kylo Ren: 'Star Wars' character names revealed

Retro trading cards introduce the newcomers of "Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens" -- but one crucial surname is still a secret...


Time to put names to faces in the "Star Wars" universe: after the teaser trailer for "Episode VII: The Force Awakens", retro trading cards reveal what the characters are called.
Entertainment Weekly has the trading cards, combining old and new with shots of the new characters set in the Topps trading card design familiar to long-time "Star Wars" fans.
The first character we glimpse in the trailer is played by "Attack the Block" star John Boyega. Dressed in Stormtrooper uniform but described as "on the run!", this character is called Finn.



The speeder-riding heroine played by Daisy Ridley is called Rey... something. With her surname held back, could it be Rey is related to one of the original characters. A Solo or a Skywalker, perhaps?
The rebel X-Wing pilot played by Oscar Isaac is Poe Dameron. The cute bowling-ball droid, which could well be the most in-demand toy of Christmas 2015, is called BB-8.
