: TBH I've actually seen these names crop up now and then, which I can't say for the numerical names. And let me just reiterate, the numerical names are not the official names! Off the top of my head, the only time I've heard any of them be used was when [[Lawrence Miles]] wrote about his unwritten novel ''[[The War (novel)|The War]]''. Yes the descriptive names aren't used often, but they ''are'' used more than the numerical names. {{User:Epsilon the Eternal/signature}} 09:30, 6 February 2023 (UTC) | : TBH I've actually seen these names crop up now and then, which I can't say for the numerical names.

:: I think we underestimate how influential the wiki can be in what we name our articles. Because of mistakes in naming articles, Jared Rahman became [[Jared Ramon]] in ''Quicksilver'', the reservoir of pain/river of evil became the [[reservoir of evil]] in some ''P.R.O.B.E.'' story and Jack McSpringheel became accepted as [[Jack (The Kraken's Lament)|Jack]]'s name despite being a one-off alias. If people don't refer to these characters by the non-conjectural names that they have, the wiki's naming probably has a part in that.
