message: After watching "Monsters Inside: The 24 faces of Billy Milligan" they do mention actually the 10 personalities of this man who suffered from MPD/DID.  The following names are mentioned:
Billy Milligan - core personality
Arthur - a sophisticated and educated Englishman who is in charge of the shared body. He appeared during times that required intellectual thinking. He was one of two personalities that could classify a person as an undesirable. [<-- no mention of the second "undesirable," and the Wikipedia article states, "Later on an additional 14 personalities, labeled "The Undesirables", were discovered."  So, are there 2, 14, or even more undesirables?]
Ragen Vadascovinich - a Yugoslavian “keeper of hate.” He had a Slavic accent, could write and speak in Serbian and was strong. He appeared in dangerous situations and admitted in committing robbery in order to support “the family.”
Allen - a con man and manipulator. He was the only right-handed, painted portraits, played drums, and smoked cigarettes.
Tommy - an escape artist, landscape painter, tenor sax player and electronics expert.
Danny - afraid of society (especially men), and did still life paintings.
David - an eight-year-old, “keeper of pain”. He took away the pain of others.
Christene - a three-year-old dyslexic girl who would punish herself when “Billy” got in trouble in school.
Christopher - Christene’s brother who knows how to play the harmonica.
Adalana - a lesbian who wrote poetry, cooked, and was a harmonica player. She was accused of committing the 4 rapes without the knowledge of the other personalities.
