The term is also sometimes, but less frequently, used to designate a hypothetical "twin" or "best friend" to a character in a story.
A distinct meaning of alter ego is found in the literary analysis used when referring to fictional literature and other narrative forms, describing a key character in a story who is perceived to be intentionally representative of the author's work (or creator), by oblique similarities, in terms of psychology, behavior, speech, or thoughts, often used to convey the author's thoughts. The altered states of the ego may themselves be referred to as alterations.
Finding one's alter ego will require finding one's other self, one with a different personality. An alter ego (Latin for "other I", "doppleganger") means an alternative self, which is believed to be distinct from a person's normal or true original personality.
