Dr Who finale theorizing - spoilers ho!

Time can be rewritten, that's a running theme this season. And we know he gave her some sort of information when she was younger that he needs her to remember. So he might have given her something personal enough (example his name) that if she knows it he knows she's on the up and up.

Assuming that River whispered his name (to 10, in the library), and if the Doctor tells Amy his name, then my Water=Water theory may be right, Amy POND is RIVER Song in the future, left in the 52nd century after their journeys for some finagled reason. I doubt the Doctor is just gonna start giving away his name to everyone and their mother now.

Wouldn't all sorts of Bad Things happen if she was in the same time and place as a future/past version of herself (like Rose/baby Rose in Father's Day)?
 
Then Amy and River can't be the same person. River touched Amy plenty of times - when she gave her the inoculation, in the forest (had her arm around her), when she teleported and caught her. The entire universe would have imploded by the end of that adventure!
 
I rather fancy that Claire Bloom's character was Susan - at least that's what I'm hoping. I don't particularly want River to be Amy but whatever happens I really hope that River can remain as a recurring guest in each series - the interplay between the characters is as electric as when Jack Harkness first appeared in the Empty Child.
 
Claire Bloom was the Doctor's mother. If you read The Writer's Tale it's all very evident. RTD wrote it so the fans could think it was anyone from The Doctor's past, but to RTD himself, that woman was The Doctor's mother. The personification of his home, of his people, of Gallifrey. RTD has said numerous times that the pain The Doctor felt from having lost Gallifrey was based in RTD's pain from losing his own mother back in 2002.

River Song:Steven Moffat::Jack Harkness:Russell T. Davies

They're Mary Sue characters. Just go with it.
