# well actually Edward Norton's character's name is Tyler Durden.
because he is tyler. notice that before he learns this, you never hear his name spoken at all

read the book too, it's really good.

sometimes norton's character is called "jack" merely for identification purposes.

but he's often referred to as Jack, as in:
"I am Jack's complete lack of surprise"
