“Stiles” Stilinski is one of the main characters on MTV’s Teen Wolf and Teen Wolf: Search for a Cure. He is portrayed by Dylan O'Brien.

Early publicity for the show identified him as “Stan Stilinsky” as does the pilot cast list for “Wolf Moon” at IMDB. During the episode The Tell, a very brief shot of his school records showed his last name spelled “Stilinski” (see inset photo). MTV also uses this as the character name on their website. Complicating the question of Stiles’ surname further is the fact that his father was identified as “Sheriff Stilinsky” in all episode cast lists, the main cast list for the show and in much of the publicity surrounding the show. In Formality we see, for the first time, the name tag on the sheriff’s uniform which says “Stilinski” (see images). Later listings of the cast have the character name as simply “Stiles” and this is the nickname all characters use when addressing him on the show. Further complicating the name issue, is the fact that his father is identified in the credits for the Season 2 episode Omega as "Sheriff Stalinski". During The Tell, Coach Bobby Finstock made fun of Stiles’ first name. He said it amounted to child abuse. Tyler Posey told the Comic Con 2011 panel that viewers will learn his first name and will “crack up” when they do. ==Gallery== == Quotes == * "No, a body of water. Yes, dumbass, a dead body!"
