In the legend, he appears as Johannes Faust, but the real Faust is said to have been named Georg.

His figure was already confused with various magician legends during his lifetime, and his sudden death (around 1536-40) further fueled the legend that the devil took his life. *Some of the terminology that mentions "Faust, J." is listed below.
