The names are an integral part of the folklore.

You should appreciate this, as it helps to distinguish the folklore of Will Donkey from the real-life person of Will Dockery.

Folklore is a fictional story that grows around a real-life person, place, or thing.

When I speak of "Will Donkey," I'm speaking of the character in the folklore.  When I speak of "Will Dockery," I'm comparing the known facts regarding your life to the tales about Will Donkey that were inspired by them.
