Hello, Matman, welcome to the forum.
If you search for the main character's name in The Aspern Papers, you will find nothing; the main character has no name other than 'narrator.' I had to search for it a bit, also, through my copy of some of Henry James' works, until I recalled the fact. :D
Good luck!
