So guys upon Mrkermit suggestion I'm making this thread to ask what is our policy right now in regards to alternate character names, when the names aren't revealed, but the character is basically the same.

I'm asking because I asked/suggested a move to the X-men 92 Wolverine and Kid Miracleman and Miracleman from Earth-238.

In Miracleman and Kid Miracleman case they are based on the originals(Miracleman looks exactly the same), but not much is known about them since they are killed, still I suggested the changes because there are no other character besides these and the originals, even Young Miracleman, might have the same name as the original, but due to him being married and we knowing the name of his wife I didn't suggest the change for him.

On [|Wolverine] case apparently the change was done because he was never called James Howlett in the cartoon, but we have called James Howlett to other alternates without knowing they were named that, plus in the most recent material as I said in the talk page, Cassandra Nova says Logan is most likely an alias.

Anyway my question is how we should proceed with alternates, should we just use the original name unless proved contrary, or should we call them just their super hero name? I think using the original name is what makes more sense and causes less confusion(if there is any), but I want other opinions/ a decision on this matter.

Thanks, hopefully I made myself clear and didn't confuse anyone with my English.
