Starman

I was wondering if you could help me with something. I'm working on The Beast of Babylon right now and the main enemy is Starman (The Beast of Babylon). However, his species is also a Starman, so I created Starman (species) and that's when I realized that there was also a David Bowie song called Starman. I put a speedy rename request on that to change it to Starman (song) and since there's now three Starman pages, I know we'll also need a disambiguation page.

However, the Ninth Doctor also refers to another Starman that he encountered and trapped in the twenty-sixth dimension and by doing so inadvertently created the Starman (The Beast of Babylon). So how would I label a page for the Starman that's trapped in the twenty-sixth dimension, since they are both referenced in The Beast of Babylon, but only one can have that page name?

All right, thank you!
And if it helps, I already did a WhatLinksHere search and there was only one Starman link on the David Bowie page, which I already changed (because it was suggested to do so on the speedy rename instruction page, if there were fewer than ten links). The only other link that now exists is the one in my last set of comments when I was explaining the Starman page issue. Mewiet 18:59, November 9, 2013 (UTC)
I was just thinking, the main enemy Starman is sometimes referred to as the Beast or the Great Beast by ancient Babylonians. He has no official name though and he's mainly referred to as the Starman, with the Beast and the Great Beast coming in as the next most used nicknames, respectively. (In the very latter part of the text.) I'm not sure how acceptable either of those would be though, since they aren't what he's primarily referred to as. But I guess it's something that could be considered since this is unique situation. But I can definitely work with your suggestion until something's decided. :) Mewiet 01:51, November 10, 2013 (UTC)
