I don't think so. Her reaction "I'm sure she already knows," just doesn't sound like a reaction to being told his name. Melody would probably assume that if the wanted her to tell this River Song person his name, that River didn't already know it. Then, it was implied that learning who River was, in combination with knowing whatever the Doctor whispered to her, is what made her decide to save his life. Then, most importantly, ''The Wedding of River Song'' takes place after ''Let's Kill Hitler'' from River's point of view, and when the Doctor whispered "Look into my eye," to her, he lied and said he told her his name. Her reaction to that mad it seem like she didn't already know his name. Besides, the Doctor may trust River at this point in his timeline, but he knows perfectly well that she wasn't trustworthy enough to know his name yet in ''Let's Kill Hitler'' (she had just tried to kill him 32 minutes ago). The whole question arc that Dorium foreshadowed will probably be connected to River learning his name.[[User:Icecreamdif|Icecreamdif]] <sup>[[User talk:Icecreamdif|talk to me]]</sup> 23:52, October 15, 2011 (UTC) | I don't think so.

Melody's reaction, "I'm sure she already knows," makes no sense if what the dying Doctor whispered was his name; it makes excellent sense if he whispered, "Tell River I love her," or words to that effect. It would certainly intensify the impact of her discovery, almost immediately afterwards, that '''she '''was River. --[[Special:Contributions/89.240.253.134|89.240.253.134]] 01:14, October 18, 2011 (UTC) | |||
