    Dr. Frankenstein gave the monster life. Therefore, it should get his last name.

    Part of Frankenstein’s rejection of his creation is the fact that he does not give him a name. Instead, Frankenstein’s creation is referred to by words such as “wretch”, “monster”, “creature”, “demon”, “devil”, “fiend”, and “it”. When Frankenstein converses with the creature, he addresses him as “vile insect”, “abhorred monster”, “fiend”, “wretched devil”, and “abhorred devil”.

      The “monster” is just the victim in this scene. Dr. Frankenstein was the real monster when he created it.

          Knowledge is understanding that Frankenstein isn’t the monster.

          Wisdom is understanding that Frankenstein is the monster.

            That sounds like putting the cart before the horse. I would say that Frankenstein Abhors his creation, and does not name it because of it. I don’t think if he’d named it Greg or something, that he’d actually treat his monster any better.

                  The doctor was an alcoholic and the monster is just him on a bender. It’s the same person.

                                i think the real argument is that what makes Frankenstein the monster is that he brings a life into this world but doesn’t provide it any guidance. he refuses to be a good father. the sea captain even finds himself quite charmed by how thoughtful, gentle, and caring the unnamed creature is despite his upbringing and decides the northwest passage isn’t worth him dooming his crew based on his philosophical discussion with the creature

                                        An abusive parent is still a parent. Unfortunately. The Creature doesn’t have to keep the name, but should be the heir to whatever is left of the family fortune and fortress.

                                          Maybe if it’s entailed to the inheritance.
