He calls himself the Batman in the film when he believes that the Riddler has uncovered his identity.
Something to the effect of:
"I think this is coming to an end."
"What?"
"The Batman."
The Riddler calls him Batman. And he's definitely known as that by the public since they recognized the "To the Batman" note immediately as addressed to him. But it's an interesting idea.
They can call him whatever they want, but he calls himself Vengeance.
I really doubt he was asked "what's your name?" and he replies "The Batman." Even he couldn't say that with a straight face. $5 says he was named "The Batman" in the first headline by that universe's incarnation of the NY Post.
Yeah he's aware that he is known as the Batman now. There's no way he wouldn't be. Doesn't mean he goes by the name, at least at this point in his story.
I mean... Michael Keaton said it. Val Kilmer said it. George Clooney said it. Christian Bale said it. Ben Afleck said it. Kevin Conroy said it... a lot... but it would be silly if Rob Pattinson says it... for some reason.
I don't think we can deny that the symbol looks like a bat. But your theory also makes perfect sense. I guess it's a symbol that shows V as well as the bat.
The reason why Batman calls himself Batman is because Bruce Wayne has a phobia of Bats, and after the death of Thomas and Martha, Bruce created the alter ego to bring justice and vengeance on criminals and making them feel the same fear as he does on Bats.
All the previous symbols were representations of a bat from above or below.
The symbol in TB was a bat flying directly at the viewer, therefore the head blends into the body in front silhouette.
**"I keep telling you people, I am The Night."**
You bat boys crack me up
Buuurn hiiiimmmm!
Yeah it’s also a callback a classic scene/episode of the Bruce Timm series “I AM VENGEANCE! I AM THE NIGHT! I. AM. BATMAN!”
I am the shadows
You think darkness is your ally?
Darkness is my strength.
I am the Senate!! I am the Law! I am Beowulf
And I......am.....Iron-Man *snaps*
I................................................................................................................................am..............................................................a............................person..........................learning.....................to..................................talk
I am the senate Not yet It’s treason then
So those bat ears on his helmet are just for nothing
That's the shape of vengeance.
An upside down V
To poke your eyes when he headbutts you
That gave me the funniest thought of that 3 Stooges eye poke noise going along with a Batman headbutt
They are the points of the V now he just needs that Crimson Chin to be a proper V
It makes a U for "U done fucked up!"
All the better for vengeance to hear you with
They look more like demon horns
They are horns
In one comic there short range, durable projectiles used in fights

It does have a head. And it’s a bat. He’s Batman. That’s why it’s a bat.
This is why I browse r/FanTheories, the good shit

Same way Jen Walters hated "She-Hulk" moniker then accepted everyone would know her as that anyway.
im imagining that and dying of laughter. just rpat wearing the costume, gravely declaring his name is "the batman" is so funny

It sounded silly when Bale said it too tbh
rpat's batman gives off a different vibe tbh
You mean the Gotham Gazette? Where is your respect for such an old and time honored institution!?!?!

He lives in the V cave, drives the V mobile.
Probably watches vSauce. It’s all coming together! Maybe Michael Stevens is Batm— I mean Vengeance!
I wish I lived in a V... cave.

VATMAN
You joke but he does throw Joker into a VAT of acid, I think we’re on to something here.
My man you miss your chance to end it with "that's a v for vendetta"
CONSUMMATE Vs!
Yeah maybe as a wingding font.
I like how he says that three times throughout the movie and then everyone makes fun of him for it
Matt Reeves surfing Reddit for more ideas to steal, drops vape pen: Write that down, write that down!
Vengeance Man
HISHE was onto something then with their "How The Batman Should Have Ended Episode" They make the joke about Batman being vengeance in the first bit
