Actually, the "unnamed" portraits are assigned to characters, just not NPCs that you pick up along the way. In BG1, inside Candlekeep when you first start, there are various tests/quests you can do. One of them is a "group combat test" where your character (who is by himself at the time) is given 5 NPCs to command while a bunch of monsters are spawned. Most (if not all) of the unassigned pictures are for those "temporary NPCs" from that area. The "man in plate mail" picture is definitely one of the NPCs (I believe the cleric, but do not remember rightly).
