Welcome, traveller, welcome to Omsk
I support a rename. The current name is far too vague.
It does not matter who I am. What matters is, who will you become? - motto of Omsk Bird
What should it be renamed to?
Also, the first 2-3 lines of the description can be improved.
It should be more popular than this, shouldn't it? I support a rename for that reason. Also ![[down]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/smiles/arrow_down.png "[down]"){kind=icon}
and .
The dullest name I can think of is Reverse Evil Twin. A slightly better one might be Evil Twin Impersonation. If you think that's too ambiguous because it might refer to the Evil Twin impersonating the Good Twin, I can only really think of Impersonating the Evil Twin.

The Internet misuses, abuses, and overuses everything.
Gentleman Troper!
This name is just weird. Hard to remember and easy to put the words in the wrong order. I'm not surprised that it's doing so badly.
Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!
And it's wretched dialog.

Look like good suggestions.

Technically, I think it's lyrics, not dialog. The name comes from a Beatles song. A song that has nothing to do with the trope. A song, in fact, whose lyrics are notorious for being cryptic, right down the to title, "I Am the Walrus".
Speaking words of fandom: let it squee, let it squee.
It's still dialog, and these are hard to fit into sentences so that they get underused.
Do we get a Single Prop Rename crowner here?

I'm sorry, did you somehow mistake my comment for a defense? 
Yeah, crowner this one up; severe underuse is a great reason for renaming, and non-indicative and dialog-like are excellent secondary reasons.

"Not dialog" did sound like a defense.
Anyway, crowner
and hook-hollering.
Technically, I think it's a monologue, not dialog.

Hi
Crowner's hooked.
Reverse evil twin sounds like the evil twin parody used in Futurama and South Park where you have a jerk character with a good twin.

Rename executed. Made a note on the old discussion, sicne there is an archived one to be moved over.

Crown Description:
Vote up for yes, down for no.
I created this trope long ago, back when tropes were studded with random references to other things. It's a fine trope (it's about when the original character is disguised as the Evil Twin rather than the other way around), but badly needs a new name. What should we do with it?
It probably should also be added to the Doppelgänger index.
