In-universe

• The Doctor, a renegade Time Lord from the planet Gallifrey. Often called "Doctor Who" by the viewing public and sometimes referred to as "Doctor Who" or "Dr. Who" in the ending credits and in titles. Prior to the Doctor's first adoption of the pseudonym "Dr. John Smith", the name "Dr. Who" (or a non-English equivalent) sometimes appeared within the narrative itself, particularly within several serials of season 4. Various non-televised stories — in particular those published by Polystyle — have additionally suggested that "Dr. Who" might be the character's actual name.
• The question "Doctor Who?", either as a Steven Moffat-penned narrative theme about the true identity of the Doctor or as a running gag directed at the Doctor, throughout the history of the programme
• Any of a number of people other than the Doctor with a similar name, further disambiguated at Dr. Who.
