For the Europeans what is the significance of the date as it is not his birthday.

    For reasons lost to history (meaning “I don’t know why”) in the days before it was legal, 4:20 pm was the special time for marijuana smokers to sneak off from school or work and enjoy. The term “4:20” became code soon after. 
    The picture blends the date April 20th written in American style as 4/20 with singer Willie Nelson’s known love of marijuana smoking for the joke. 
It’s one of those “you had to be there” kind of things.   I hope that explains it.  😜

Point of order.  Luke was never called Skywalker on Tatooine--he was always Luke.  Just Luke.  It's even there in the dialogue--

 

C-3PO:  "I see, sir."

LUKE: "You can call me Luke."

C-3PO:  "I see, Sir Luke."

LUKE: (Chuckles) "No--just Luke."

 

Not even in the deleted scenes does the name Skywalker come up--not until the detention block scene--

 

LUKE: "I'm Luke Skywalker, I'm here to rescue you!"

 

Which leads me to conclude that Luke did not know his father's name growing up on Tatooine--if anything, he was likely called Luke Lars.  With good reason, as Uncle Owen didn't want him knowing the truth of his origins.

 

Hope that helps.
