Luke wasn't adopted, so went by Skywalker.

See, simple as that!

Luke WAS adopted. How do you call that, when persons who are not the real parents take responsabilty of a child?

Err, dunno mate...foster parents...or just become their leagal gaurdians.
Luke was not adopted in the same legal way as Leia.
Owen and Beru never became Lukes mother and father, the way they would have been if he was adopted.
So, to sum up...Luke was NOT adopted and Leia was. That's why Leia has the surname of Organa and not Skywalker.

Jesus, does there have to be an argument about every small bloody thing.
