(Now for the second half...)

One thing that's kind of been bugging me in this discussion is the overuse of the phrase "real name". Even leaving aside the cases of Kal-El/Clark Kent/Superman and Simon Morrison/Adrian Chase, it's clear that what we should really be considering is the civilian name.

The real name of the Flash is Bartholomew Henry Allen, but obviously we aren't going to locate his page there. It's at Barry Allen, because he goes by a shortened form of his name.
