| == Names given by others ==
| |
| A list of names other individuals have called the Doctor throughout his travels.
| |
| * The Doctor: While some accounts contradict this, [[Barbara Wright]] and [[Ian Chesterton]] may have accidentally given him this title, after being informed that his alias of "Doctor Foreman" was not his real name and given no other name to call him ([[TV]]: ''[[An Unearthly Child]]''). The Doctor did not protest and, by the end of the sixties, starts introducing himself by this name. {{Template:Fact}}
| |
| * Doctor Who: The name Doctor Who was applied to the Doctor, intentionally or unintentionally, on many occasions. The computer [[WOTAN]] once referred to the Doctor as Doctor Who, for reasons which have never been explained. ([[TV]]: ''[[The War Machines]]'') [[Clive Finch]] also used this name when referring to the [[Ninth Doctor]] on his website [[Defending the Earth!|Who is Doctor Who?]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Rose (TV story)|Rose]]'') [[K9]] was heard on occasion making playful remarks related to the Who name. ([[TV]]: ''[[A Girl's Best Friend]]'', [[TV]]: ''[[Invasion of the Bane]]'') It is unclear whether the Doctor himself ever actually used the name, although his [[Third Doctor|third incarnation]] drove an [[Bessie|automobile]] with the licence number "WHO 1" ([[TV]]: ''[[Doctor Who and the Silurians]]'', et al) and not long before his regeneration was seen driving a futuristic vehicle that possibly apocryphal sources suggest may have been called the [[Whomobile]]. ([[TV]]: ''[[Invasion of the Dinosaurs]]'') The Doctor wrote a series of [[Doctor Who Discovers|children's books]] during his time with [[UNIT]] which were mistakenly published under this name. ([[AUDIO]]: ''[[The Kingmaker (audio story)|The Kingmaker]]'')

|
| |
| :''The name was often unintentionally invoked when characters wished to learn who the Doctor was and what his name was: "Doctor? Doctor ''who''?" Often this is done for comic effect; see [[The "Doctor Who?" running joke]].''
