I've said this elsewhere - I kinda get the "my characters are real to me" thing. I've had characters say/do something that totally threw my plot off, but that I didn't change because it felt right for them to do that.
This is not what LKH does. She takes this thing way too far. Like, "are they in the room now?" far. "Maybe you should be on medication," far.
I could accept her point if she said "no other name felt right". But no, she went with "my characters wouldn't let me change the name." Which is disturbing in several ways.
