Osgood is said to be both "Zygon" and "Human" at the same time while Zygon Osgood is only "Zygon". Shouldn't at least one of them be changed? --DCLM ☎ 18:36, November 1, 2015 (UTC)
Name
She said her first name was Petronella, sure, but does anyone believe for a second that the Doctor's first name is actually Basil? Kai Ell ☎ 02:18, November 8, 2015 (UTC)

- For what it's worth, Big Finish is also now using the name "Petronella" officially. JagoAndLitefoot ☎ 01:12, November 12, 2015 (UTC)
- It's also appeared on the BBC site: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/profiles/nb0PrNpn29JsBkggCkrytT/osgood JagoAndLitefoot ☎ 01:14, November 12, 2015 (UTC)

- Blogtor Who pointed out on twitter that Basil means King, while Petronella is a patron saint of kings. I can see "Petronella" being Osgood's way of calling the Doctor's bluff and I wonder if anyone asked Steven Moffat before changing the official website etc. Prof. Chronotis ☎ 23:38, November 12, 2015 (UTC)
The speedy rename tag has been changed to a rename tag because there is a forum discussion at Thread:183821 over what to do with the multiple Osgood types. So until that thread is resolved, there is no rush to change this page name. Shambala108 ☎ 22:11, November 12, 2015 (UTC)
I changed it to Petronella without realising the rule about the naming can someone change it back please All Hail Aslan ☎ 12:14, November 15, 2015 (UTC)
All done but it should be changed to petronella osgood since all the people who take osgoods form become osgood. All Hail Aslan ☎ 12:17, November 15, 2015 (UTC)
I think it should be Petronella Osgood. That is her full name. – The preceding unsigned comment was added by Lehpey (talk • contribs) .
The Doctor Who The Official Annual 2017's short storry Yes Missy has one Osgood mail the other, using the names Petronella also. I think it's best to rename until proven otherwise, because a lot of sources use this name - even if they hadn't asked Moffat is this is genuine, personally.

I don't understand why it hasn't been changed. The general consensus agrees it should be Petronella Osgood. Xx-connor-xX ☎ 14:41, January 2, 2017 (UTC)
companionship
There appears to be at least two editors thinking that Osgood is a companion of the Twelfth Doctor and at least two (including myself) insisting she is not. I propose to stop toggling the category until a consensus is reached, based on the discussion I now start by laying down the main argument (credit for it goes to TheChampionOfTime) against her being a companion: the Doctor's own words from Robo Rampage. – The preceding unsigned comment was added by Amorkuz (talk • contribs) 20:58, December 28, 2016 .
- I think she should be considered a one story companion of the twelfth (as she took the role of his companion in the Zygon two-parter). She shouldn't be considered a companion in the Death in Heaven episode though as she didn't travel with the Doctor. Xx-connor-xX ☎ 21:04, December 28, 2016 (UTC)
- The Doctor seems pretty definitive, though. She's not his companion. "I'm ideal material. It's just that my work here on Earth is too important."
- The Doctor offered to take her with him and Clara in their travels. "Do you want to come?" She replied, "More than anything. But I think I have to stay."
- Is the argument being made that she was briefly a companion in the Zygon stories? But then why isn't Kate a companion, for example, as well? The companion in those stories is still Clara. Osgood is a recurring character, but I don't think the Doctor's companion.
