Unnamed characters (TOS)

This page lists all original series Battlestar Galactica characters who were never named either on screen or by any of the show's creatives.
The scope of this article is limited to characters who have either an on-screen credit or had an important interaction with a major character. For instance, the woman on the Gemini telling Iblis of how having two tallon plants would be a miracle enough would be notable, while the man falling off the roof during the Cylon attack on Caprica wouldn't.
