Is his name Sebastian or Jeremy?


I always thought it was Jeremy, and it in the credits, but loads of people on this board seem to be referring the character as Sebastian.

Why?

It's my understanding from the movie that his name really IS Jeremy (all of the ID and plastic cards in his wallet have the name Jeremy on them) but that he chooses to go as Sebastian while he's in the apartment. As to why, I have no idea.

I need to see the movie again because I thought his real name was Sebastian and his alias was Jeremy G Smart. As one poster says if his IDs say Jeremy then I must be mixed up.

The reason why people keep calling him Sebastian is for a good part his scenes when he interacts with Sophie and Louise he keeps referring to himself as Sebastian. Guess that stuck in my head longer than Jeremy.

Why does he do it? Staying at the flat was like a playground for Jeremy, another source of amusement. He probably felt like he was being James Bond or something by using a fake name.
