Ah, yes the evil twin...there's always the evil twin...but which one is killed off, the good or the bad one? Is that the mystery?

I haven't used real names in any of my books. Even a book I'm working on now which is a historical mystery loosely based on real events, had the name of the family changed. I agree that it is childish and aggressive. I wonder about the people who vie to get their names in a book by a well known author without having any idea what kind of character they'll become. I have put the names of family dogs in two books now.

I don't know. There are worse things you can do, like using a well-known book critic's name for a disgusting character. I can't say that I like that sort of thing, no matter how pissed off the author was. It's basically childish.

Right. Sometimes the tv series go to extremes testing your belief when a dead person keeps coming back to life on the next show. Even if you wanted that character to live, a poorly contrived story line leaves you shaking your head.

Since death is an ending, I guess it's appropriate at the ending of a series or as a natural thing if the hero is now 85 years old...its inevitable.

I've heard of people naming a character for someone they are angry with and then giving them all kind of pain...killing them off would make a statement I guess.
