Some very bold ideas in there, looking forward for some more.
How does Anakin Lars become Anakin Skywalker in your vision?
the idea was because of his reputation as a pilot and a jedi, many began to refer to him as "the skywalker"
A couple of observations, if I may. Many have wondered how Vader did not find out about Luke for 20 years, seeing as he was living under the name of Skywalker. Why didn't he go to Tatooine when Luke was 10 and just grab him. If Skywalker is not just another surname, but rather the mark of the best pilot of the galaxy, this problem becomes quite emphasized.
Secondly, starting Obi-Wan that age 25 might have some implications, too. For instance, in ANH, Vader states that "your powers have grown weak, old man". That is, in my impression, a way you'd address someone who is quite markedly your senior - 10 years would seem appropriate. If Anakin and Obi-Wan gets too close in age, that line is somewhat challenged.
Moreover, Obi-Wan is about 60ish in ANH. If you start him at 25, the Prequel will likely span over about 15 years (until Luke is born). That's the same time span of the official PT, and I felt it was difficult to maintain the cohesiveness of the narrative with such a long timespan.
