Question:
 Does Lucius Malfoy know that Voldemort's real name is Tom Riddle? 
I wrote:
 Yes, he must, because when he gave Ginny Tom Riddle's Diary in CoS, 
it said on the back "T.M. Riddle"
Katie wrote:
 Who says Lucius gave it to her, perhaps it was someone else...

I respond:
 At the end of CoS, Dumbledore says to Lucius "... I would advise you, 
Lucius, not to go giving out any more of Lord Voldemort's old school 
things."  Also, Lucius does not openly deny giving Ginny the book, 
rather only says "Prove it."   I suppose, though, you could take the 
whole "innocent until proven guilty" motto.  If you are a Lucius 
Malfoy fan..
