just knowing what his real name is thats all


His name is The Doctor. Just that. The Doctor. That is his name, I believe things where he is from is different, they have names, but not normal ones like "David Tennant" or "Matt Smith" Just a title.


Based on what how River Song gets his attention in Silence in the Library, we do know he has a name other than The Doctor, and he told it to her at one point.

Personally, I don't think they'll ever tell us, because hardly anything could live up to the mystery of it.


I always wondered about that, how she knew his name. I suspected she was his wife later on or something...because she had the screwdriver the 11th doctor has now.

I would really hate it if she was if wife, though. She kept dropping hints about it...
True I also don't like the idea of him being married, because if he gets married, what about his companions? What will they do? Will they all go on a murderous rampage targetting her?

Four theories:

His name actually is Who, and he doesn't tell anyone because he gets a kick out of people accidentally saying his name all the time.

His name is something really embarrassing or girly, like Lucy or something. He doesn't tell it out of keeping his pride.

His name is time locked back in some period of time, maybe the Time War, and he literally does not have the ability to say it seeing as how, wibbly wobbly, it doesn't actually exist. (I find this one more plausible than my other theories.)

His name is Fortytwo, or some variation of that. This actually makes sense (sort of), because in Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, the Ultimate Answer to Life, the Universe, and Everything is 42. There, we just don't know the Question.

In Doctor Who, the Ultimate Question, the one that cannot be answered for yaddayadda reasons, is, well, "Doctor who?". Combine them together, and we have both the Question AND the Answer. "Doctor who?" "[Doctor] Fortytwo."

i would seem that it would conclude that know who or what can be
Technically "The Doctor" is his real name weirdly enough. 3nodding

NO ONE KNOWS, other wise what would be the pint of calling the show doctor who, and not whats-his-name and his companions travels in time?

Well River knows. Your argument is still valid, as we don't know. I just had to say.



But if I remember that episode correctly he didn't really tell her his name just to look in his eye.....for reasons I don't want to spoil for those who haven't caught up with the Matt Smith arc. as I like to call it.
