On an additional note, I do feel that the First Master not being the first would be confusing for casual readers - I think trying to use the precedent with the Doctor doesn't work - the Doctor is somewhat of a special case, and I don't think the fact they've got pre-First Doctor lives can be used to justify calling the third or fourth incarnation of the Master "The First", even if they were the first to leave Gallifrey. It'd just get confusing. | On an additional note, I do feel that the First Master not being the first would be confusing for casual readers - I think trying to use the precedent with the Doctor doesn't work - the Doctor is somewhat of a special case, and I don't think the fact they've got pre-First Doctor lives can be used to justify calling the third or fourth incarnation of the Master "The First", even if they were the first to leave Gallifrey.

I don't really have an alternate name suggestion - I thought Inventor was alright, since it's a title they used on Destination - sorta following similar logic to the whole "Spy Master" name. But it seems that's fallen by the wayside, so I don't really have any other ideas, aside from "The Renegade Master", since they're the first to become a renegade and because it'd be a funny name, but I don't expect that to catch on, two little justification here.

: Just a quick other thing - doesn't change much, but I thought I'd point it out. The third quote n8 posted with the "First Master" name being used to refer to this incarnation, is actually a quote of a quoted review - the article quotes a few reviews, and the third quote is a quote of one of those reviews that was quoted. It ultimately doesn't affect the convo, since there's still two other valid quotes, but I thought I'd point that out.
