In Series 6 we find out that the Silence want to destroy the Doctor in order to prevent him going to the Fields of Trenzalore and answering the First Question, which is apparently "Doctor who...?" For some reason, they believe the answering of the question will lead to something terrible. But this doesn't really make a lot of sense, as the answer to "Doctor who...?" is simple: Doctor nothing; it's just "The Doctor." People have been assuming the answer is the Doctor's true name, but it's not. Why would this so terrify the Silence?

the doctor does have a real name.  river whispered it to him in silence in the library/forest of the dead.  also, it was revealed in the sound of drums that the doctor chose the name "the doctor", meaning he must have had another name before then, aka his true name.  also, madam de pompadore suggested there was something deeper to the question "doctor who". i'm sure there are plenty more examples in the show that hint towards the doctor having a true name which is hidden, but these are just the first examples i can think of.  [[User:Imamadmad|Imamadmad]] <sup>[[User talk:Imamadmad|talk to me]]</sup> 09:49, May 13, 2012 (UTC)
