Karl
Karl is one of the Others and Alex's boyfriend whom Ben put into Room 23, presumably to brainwash him and keep him from getting Alex pregnant.

Naomi Dorrit
Naomi parachuted onto the island and was rescued by Desmond. She claimed to have been sent by Penelope Widmore to find Desmond. Naomi has a satellite phone and went with Jack's group to the radio tower. Before Naomi could call her freighter, however, Locke killed her with a knife.

Christian Shephard
Christian Shephard was Jack's alcoholic father. Jack had been in Australia and was bringing his father's body back to the states when the plane went down. Jack thought he saw Christian on the island.
Christian is also Claire's father, though Claire never knew his name and neither she nor Jack know that they are half brother and half sister.
Previous to the crash, Christian had hired Ana-Lucia as a bodyguard. He'd also talked to Sawyer in a bar at one point. For more on Christian Shephard, including a picture, see Christian Shephard's Profile.
