Coolie

"Wow! That means your uncle Dro is related to my aunt Coolie..."

―Luke Skywalker

Coolie was apparently an aunt, real or adoptive, of Luke Skywalker.

Behind the scenes

In the novel Children of the Jedi, when Callista Ming told Luke about her uncle Dro's opposition to anyone having fun, the Jedi Master laughingly remarked that "your uncle Dro [must be] related to my aunt Coolie." However, Luke's aunt Coolie does not appear to be referred to in any other source.

Adding to the uncertainty, the exchange in question took place in a dreamscape, while a feverish and injured Luke was trapped aboard the Imperial battlemoon Eye of Palpatine and Callista was a disembodied consciousness trapped inside the ship's gunnery computer.

Based on this one reference, if Coolie existed (rather than being a figment of Luke's fevered imagination) and was a nominal relative of Luke's (rather than an "honorary aunt"), she was probably a member of either the Lars family or the Whitesun family.
