In case anyone has missed this, I would like to point out that this incarnation has an official name, "the Morbius Monster", and has had that name for nearly two decades. That's how he is referred to in the Monsters and Villains reference book, published by the BBC. The name is used in both a section header and in running text, with proper-name capitalisation (so we know for a fact that it's not just a passing mention of "the Morbius monster"). It contains both his personal name "Morbius" and the objective description "Monster", the latter of which is also used (with proper-name capitalisation) throughout the novelisation, so I really cannot see any possible objection to this name. As far as I can tell, the sole reason it's being kept at "Second Morbius" is out of a neurotic desire to make it add up (?) to the completely unsupported fan-made name "Third Morbius" that someone has prematurely decided must be used for the Samuel West incarnation. I hope to see this resolved soon. PintlessMan ☎ 05:09, 9 July 2023 (UTC)
