Pan is like the Dark One – a position of magic with different people filling the role.

That’s something I’ve been thinking for a while now, that “Pan” is really more of a position one holds, as opposed to a unique part of one specific person’s name. So going with something I said in my previous post, about Bae choosing a more ordinary name for himself while he was in hiding, he went by Peter, and held the position of Pan for however long. Other Pans came before him, and there’s been a different one since he left.

I really like the idea of “The Pan” being more of a title than an individual.

Does Rufio exist in your version of Neverland?
Kitsis: You know what? At this point, everyone has asked us about Rufio. Our entire writers’ room is pitching Rufio. I don’t know whether or not that is property of Sony.
Horowitz: Whatever studio did it, I think Rufio is a proprietary character.
Kitsis: He lives in our hearts.
Horowitz: We love Rufio and we wish he could be a part of this show. In our minds, he exists in the show whether you see him or not.http://www.tvguide.com/News/Once-Upon-Time-Lightning-Round7-Kitsis-Horowitz-Spoilers-1064265.aspx

While this rules out the possibility of Rufio in the Once version of NL, it doesn’t exclude the possibility of Pan being more of a leadership title, similar to the title of the Dark One.

I have to agree, the fact the writers were pitching that character, that A&E talked about it in an interview does suggest there’s an element of Pan being a title belonging to whoever is the current leader of the lost boys.
