What Is Loid Forger’s Real Name in Spy x Family? and Why Does Loid Use A Fake Name?
Loid Forger is the main character in Spy X Family.
Loid, a Secret Spy code-named Twilight, was tasked to monitor and undercover any planned attacks from the East.
Loid’s orders were to stop the National Unity Party’s leader Donovan Desmond who was looking to harm the peace between Ostanian and Westalian governments.
Loid’s orders were to get close to Donovan Desmond and monitor his activities.
But Donovan Desmond’s appearance was very private.
People hardly used to see him outside his house.
Loid identified that Donovan’s son Damian Desmond studies in the prestigious Eden Academy, and Donovan only used to make public appearances at the prestigious ceremonies conducted by the school.
Hence, the only chance for Loid to get close to Donovan Desmond is to get married, have a child, enrol that child on the prestigious Eden Academy, and monitor the activities of Donovan Desmond.
Then he adopts Anya Forger, “Test Subject 007”, having the telepathic ability, and Yor Briar, aka Thorn Princess, a high-profile assassin who agreed to play Anya’s mother.
Now the three of them behave like an average family to outsiders. Loid’s goal is to make his adopted daughter Anya an Imperial Scholer and befriend Damian (Donovan’s son) to get close to his subjects.
One of the questions that the fans have is, what is the real name of Loid Forger? Did he have any name before the name Loid Forger?
Well, let us find the answers below.

What Is Loid Forger’s Real Name in Spy x Family?
Loid’s real name has yet to be revealed in Spy X Family manga chapters or the anime series.
He was consistently named as secret spy agent Twilight, the best Spy in WISE, capable of handling any urgent critical missions.
Therefore he doesn’t have any name in Spy X Family, but as per Fiction Horizon, Loid’s earlier name, or his actual name, has not been mentioned in the anime series as well as in the manga because he is a war orphan.
It is said that when Loid was little, his hometown was invaded and bombed by Ostania, which killed everyone in the town, including his parents.
Loid almost died at that time but survived as he was wearing a helmet that saved him from the crushing rock, and after his father and mother were killed, he took the identity called Ronald Spoofy and served in the army.
He served in the army for a few years before becoming a Spy code-named Twilight.
As he became a Spy and completed mission after mission, Loid eventually left his old life and identity and only focused only on his missions.
Eventually, he became famous as Agent Twilight.
Hence that is the name that he goes by in Spy X Family.
So there is no real name for Loid, so he became a spy to stop the war between Westalian and Ostania.
For that to happen, he needed to get close to National Unity Party’s leader Donovan Desmond to understand his plan to erupt peace between the Ostanian and Westalian governments.
This is where Anya and Loid come in.
He created a fake family where he adopted a telepathic girl named Anya and an assassin named Yor Briar, who acted as a family.
His job is to get Anya enrolled in the prestigious Eden Academy so that Anya gets to become friends with Donovan’s son Damian and then gets close to him.


Why Does Loid Use A Fake Name?
As stated above, Loid doesn’t have a real name.
He is a war orphan whose city was attacked by Ostania, and his mother and father were killed.
Later on, he served in the Westalian army for a couple of years and then became an undercover agent, he eventually conducted many high-priority undercover missions as a Spy, and from there on, he came to know as the Agent Twilight of WISE.
Later on different missions, Loid used to take different names.
For operation example, Strix Twilight took the name of Loid Forger.
He takes different identities in every mission depending on the task because he can quickly get rid of the identity whenever needed with the help of WISE and can jump on to other assignments.
For example, earlier in Spy X Family, Twilight had taken the identity of Robert to infiltrate the foreign ministry office to acquire evidence against minister Edger.
Later on, for operation Strix, he eventually got rid of his identity and started a family with Any and Yor.
He frequently does this to get rid of his old identity and then start a new mission without coming under any suspicion of the Government.
Loid achieves this with the help of his organization WISE.


What is the story of the Spy X Family?
Loid Forger, a Secret Spy code-named Twilight, was tasked to monitor and undercover any planned attacks from the East; hence he had to build a family and live like a normal couple to complete his mission, Operation Strix.
As part of Operation Strix, Loid’s orders were to stop the National Unity Party’s leader Donovan Desmond who was looking to harm the peace between Ostanian and Westalian governments.
Loid’s orders were to get close to Donovan Desmond and monitor his activities.
But Donovan Desmond’s appearance was very private.
People hardly used to see him outside his house.
Hence Loid, with his extensive research, identified that Donovan’s son Damian Desmond studies in the prestigious Eden Academy, and Donovan only used to make public appearances at the prestigious ceremonies conducted by the school.
Hence, the only chance for Loid to get close to Donovan Desmond is to get married, have a child, enrol that child on the prestigious Eden Academy, and monitor the activities of Donovan Desmond.
Then he adopts Anya Forger, “Test Subject 007”, having the telepathic ability, and Yor Briar, aka Thorn Princess, a high-profile assassin who agreed to play Anya’s mother.
Now the three of them behave like a normal family to outsiders, and Loid’s goal is to make his adopted daughter Anya an Imperial Scholer and befriend Damian (Donovan’s son) to get close to his subjects.
The funny thing about Anya here is that she has the telepathic ability, which means she can hear what other people think, and Loid doesn’t know that Yor is an assassin, and Yor doesn’t know that Loid is a spy.
This is where the series gets funnier during normal interaction, Anya quickly understands what her mother and father are thinking, and the reaction to those scenarios is very humorous.
Another thing is Yor’s brother Yuri Briar who also works in the State Security Service, pretends to be an ordinary civil servant at the foreign ministry.
And Yuri is also looking for the secret Spy that is, Loid, unaware that it’s in his sister’s Family.
The whole interaction between these four and the challenges they face along the way is the reason to watch Spy X Family.
Do tune into Netflix to stream the series.
