Identity

Captain Gault

Captain Gault, the Captain of the Kahana, who may have met Naomi aboard the freighter, or perhaps previously.

Regina

Regina, a radio operator on the Kahana, who allegedly killed herself due to temporal displacement, but did not show any of the symptoms (nosebleed, consciousness lapse), and may have killed herself out of grief.

Russell Gray

Russell Gray, a deceased individual featured in "Some Like It Hoth", Naomi’s last appearance in the series, and the only character whose initials have been confirmed to be “R.G.”.

Redfern

Redfern, a mercenary onboard the Kahana. who may have met Naomi aboard the freighter, or perhaps previously.

Ray

Ray, the doctor on the Kahana, who may have met Naomi aboard the freighter, or perhaps previously.

No one

R.G. is no one. The phrase on the bracelet is a code which identifies her to certain other members of her organization. We know the organization use codes, such as "Tell my sister I love her". Alternatively, the phrase on the bracelet is simply meaningless and a cover-up for the true meaning, and it's the bracelet itself that is important.

Jack's tattoo

The tattoo on Jacks back reads "R G" could there be a connection?

Vlcsnap-2010-04-26-00h24m59s73 — The Tattoo that reads "RG"

Biblical Naomi

Since the subplot was dropped, mystery behind the name and the bracelet as a whole is gone. One could surmise that the bracelet is a nod towards Naomi's biblical counterpart. In the bible, Naomi's sons and husband die and her-daughter-in-law, Ruth, refuses to leave her. Obviously, "R" would always be with "N". The "G" would have to be a surname.

We were supposed to find out, but the subplot was dropped

Originally, the identity of R.G. was supposed to be a mystery, due to the fact that several crew members on the Kahana had forenames starting with R (Ray, Regina) or surnames starting with G (Captain Gault). However, the subplot was ultimately deemed unimportant to the story and dropped.

-***Regina is played by [[Zoë Bell]], who has little resemblance to [[Marsha Thomason]] (who plays Naomi). Regina, however, could be Naomi's adopted sister.

-*RG stands for initials (like "Robert Grant") or for two names (like "Mary Jane" or "Billy Jo").

-*RG is Naomi's romantic interest, for Naomi's job involves her being away for long times, thus her lover engraves the bracelet to remind her that they are together - emotionally.

-*[[Elsa]] appeared to be wearing a similar bracelet. Given that she was double-crossing Sayid, Elsa might not be her real name.

-*R.G stands for [[Republican Guard]], of which we know [[Sayid]] was a member of. Therefore: "Naomi, I will always be with you.  **It's unlikely that Ruth would have that particular photo of Desmond and [[Penny]].

-* [[Goodwin Stanhope]] - Given the freighter people's interest in the non-815 islanders ([[Desmond]], [[Ben]]), and Goodwin's possible military history (not to mention the history of romantic entanglement), he could easily have enough in common with Naomi to be R.G.
-**Goodwin is his middle name - his first starts with R, ie. Robert Goodwin.

-*[[Ray]], the doctor on the freighter.
-*[[Captain Gault]], whose first name is currently unknown.

-*R.G is Regina. She throws herself off the boat when she learns of Naomi's death.

-**That is not why Regina jumped off the boat.  The captain said that it was because of being so close to the island.  Many crew member were suffering, Regina was just a "red shirt" to show the effects of the sickness that the island caused. --[[User:Ruezon|Schwa]] 22:46, 6 June 2008 (PDT)
-*R.G. is Ben. Ben is known to have many names and to lie to many people. The fact that they were going to capture Ben from the Island sounds like a motive for Naomi to want to come to the Island. Ben could've tricked her into getting what he wanted (big shocker there!) and he gave her the bracelet as proof that he "loved her".
-*R.G. is [[Elsa]]. Which is not her real name. Elsa and [[Naomi]] are life partners and use a bracelet to mark their relationship.--[[User:Hurleyfan23|Hurleyfan23]] 22:58, 28 August 2008 (PDT)
