Hmm. This is very interesting, and I definitely think that the Doctor is the good man River killed. I am not positive about her killing him during his last regeneration, though I suppose it could happen. But the thing I'm not convinced by is the idea that the only time the Doctor could tell someone his name is as he was dying for the last time. Because he doesn't say "only one way I WOULD"--and would and could are very different. The only way I could see it happening is if the Dotor establishes a telepathic link with her as he's dying to transfer his memories--but why? It seems a bit extreme.
I rather wondered if she didn't find out the Doctor's name because she's an archaeologist and she uncovered relics of his deeds on Gallifrey, and just let him think he told here...
I have other theories about the season so far. We must discuss them on AIM soon.
