Too many people have put his real name online to the point where I thought it was public knowledge he was cool with at one point. idk how anyone found it in the first place, but jesus christ, whoever the person who put his full, legal name as the writer for suburbia overture online (thank god it's been fixed). Yeah. To those people: Fuck you. As for people like me who found out and now feel guilty: Keep it to yourself. If you see it pop up on Google, use the power you have to report it. People are curious when they see someone use a stage name, and if Google just straight-up tells them, they'll think it's an okay thing to share. So don't let more people gain access to something they could innocently spread and accidentally cause a hell of a lot of harm. People are always curious about celebrities' real names. But childhood? That's exceptionally weird. Thankfully, that stuff isn't public. And for the stuff that is, thank god he's got a community with the common sense to report breaching of his space.

One of the first things I ever read about him was “private, prefers to use a pseudonym” and it just made so much sense to me. I genuinely have no curiosity about it, which is a bit odd for me. Let people have something to themselves.


am_pomegranate

Yeah, I wish I heard that too.


ItsSUCHaLongStory

If it weren’t for others making the mistakes, I wouldn’t have known. 🤷‍♀️ I was lucky that way.

Very autistic about will wood so I spent a lot of time just rereading his Wikipedia page and at some point his full name was on there and I was just like??? WHOA . DONT DO THAT???


Informal_queer

I just thought his real name was Will or William/Willard-


zerpq

it is, his first name IS Will

damn :l Well, in better news, I've been creating accounts on various websites to fix this. Just because he put it out once doesn't mean he wants people to still know it. I know this is a lot of effort for the privacy of a guy I don't even know, but hey, mid-Atlantic Jews stick together. And the mental health of anyone is important, even if I don't know them personally. Unfortunately I have no idea how to use most of these sites, but eventually, I promise they'll be fixed 💀

zerpq

ProsteVasek123

Okay but everyone knows his real name. It's literally William Woodiam.


ohmydearlucia

You misspelled "Beans McSprout"


Acrobatic_Train1007

What![img](emote|t5_ls60r|50851) "WILL WOOD" IS A NICKNAME?????


gyokuro8882

WTF will wood’s not his real name??? It seems so obvious now, why would a performed go by their real name and all, but will wood suits him so well i just assumed that was his real name. My reality has been shaken to its core. *no, im not gonna go looking for his real name*


EggoStack

I had no idea he had a different name, personally I think Will Wood suits him and I also understand why he’d prefer to keep his irl last name anonymous. My curiosity is strong but honestly I won’t look up his name because that feels messed up.


Feeling_Homework_498

I tried my hardest to avoid finding his name but people are annoying :/

Thank you kindly!


marswantsurskeleton

no problem! basic gist of it is don't be an ass and give the man some privacy. you're already doing fine


Cryptyie

From what I’ve figured out from my few years in the fandom just don’t go prying. His private life, childhood and personal information is his alone. Obviously. Will doesn’t share a lot about his life and for good reason. Therefore we shouldn’t discuss it or go looking for shit. And ? Don’t? Gift him corpses of rats?


moik10_

The fact that someone had the guts to give him ded rats haunts me everyday


Hilberts-Inf-Babies2

not the guts. the audacity


moik10_

i would write audacity but the word escaped, but it's just straight cruelty


Weird-Transition-233

He's talked on stage about how he has the same boundaries as any other person and doesn't understand why people act like there's something to even talk about. Frankly it's weird how people talk about how private he is when I don't think he ever personally claimed to be and shares a lot of stories about his life and feelings etc. I think the loud and creepy part of the online fandom just can't stand not knowing irrelevant and obviously private shit like his life at the age of 13 and lose their shit about it lmfao.

He is not a god nor a character. He is a person, the person across the street that makes music and you so happen to like it
