Quote from the book:Tell that to Count Dracula.
"4 May--I found that my landlord had got a letter from the Count..."
This is only one of multiple occasions where Count Dracula is addressed like that. The actual first name is never mentioned throughout the novel.
That does, however, not rule out the possibility that the character is named (title, first name, last name) Count Count Dracula.
Extra info: Despite being based on Vlad the Impaler (aka Vlad Draculea), it is never mentioned that the first name of the Count is actually Vlad.
And on my next TED talk I will cover how the name of Disney character Moana was changed to Vaiana in European countries to not get confused with former Italian adult actress Moana Pozzi, just to be named very similarly to former French adult actress Vayana. Thanks for attending.
