Question: Is it said, anywhere, if Anakin and Padmé decided on their "baby's" name (not knowing there were twins) before Anakin turned? Maybe they chose Luke for a boy, Leia for a girl? Padmé seems to say the names quickly during childbirth. However, after Vader discovers Luke in the future, it would be an interesting coincidence that he and Leia have those names, are the same age, and Leia looks like Padmé.

Continuity mistake: When Obi-Wan meets Anakin on the landing bay of the volcanic planet, Obi-Wan comes down the ramp from the ship and removes his cloak. It lays across the end of the ramp. The shot changes, then comes back, and the cloak is now bunched off to one side. (01:42:30)
Darth Sidious: [To Yoda.] I've been waiting a long time for this, my little green friend.
Trivia: In the scene where Darth Vader and the Emperor are looking out onto the unfinished first Death Star, keep an eye out for a young Grand Moff Tarkin (played by Peter Cushing in "Star Wars").

Answer: It is never said, but since Vader did not know Leia was his daughter, it's safe to assume Padmé came up with the names herself.
