I'm very confused about this...
So there's Queen Amidala (played by Natalie Portman)... and then at one point they use a decoy... and then decoy says... here take my handmaid with you named Padme.
So then I was thinking Padme is just a fake name.. and I got confused as to why Anakin still calls her Padme later if that was just a fake name.
Then I asked my friend and he said that her actual name is Padme Amidala so that makes sense...
But that's kind of weird right? Like the queen's handmaid has the exact same name as her and also looks like her?
I'm Queen Padme, and this is my assistant Padme?
Am I just misunderstanding this?
