Re: 3. Except sometimes not: see variations on John_Henry_Irons_(New_Earth) and Booster Gold. I suggested moving a page to include a middle name and an admin here vandalized in response while saying no, it would never happen and didn't really address why sometimes we do this and sometimes we don't. It's just ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

4. Sometimes, except Hal Jordan (but Bartholomew Allen).

6 to 8. Sometimes but many characters have assumed or fabricated real names: e.g. I'm pretty sure (I've read all these stories more than once but can't recall every fine detail) that Metamorpho is not called Rex Mason in these realities: Rex Mason (Earth-22), Rex Mason (The Nail), Rex Mason (JSA: The Golden Age), Rex Mason (Justice). Why is he named that way? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
