I wonder how things would have turned out had everyone - after reading the novel Dracula when it was first published - come away with the idea that "Dracula" was actually not a name but a title all vampires used. Probably the idea would have only gained more-and-more prominence until it became holy writ, leading almost all vampire characters in later works of fiction to bear the "Dracula" name along with their own. There would have been a Dracula Orlok, Dracula Blackula, Dracula Count, Dracula Edward, etc.
It would have been so unbelievably fucking stupid.
Hey you forgot about this guy! (Tut tut tut) lol
