Mary Shelley said herself that there are two monsters in the book and both are named Frankenstein.

Ah, Ernest and William, the younger brothers of Victor. Of course, it all makes sense now!

[-] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

It's pronounced Ernst

The monster's name is literally Adam Frankenstein

Reminds me of your Winnie the Pooh is named Edward Bear.

No it isn't. He compares himself to Adam once ("I ought to be thy Adam, but I am rather the fallen angel, whom thou drivest from joy for no misdeed") but he never calls himself that. And frankly, considering how much Frankenstein and the monster hated each other I don't think either of them would want to share a name.
