Slytherin can"

DuffyPoo:
Tom Riddle said that at 16 he was already using the Lord Voldemort name with his closest friends.  "It was a name I was already using at Hogwarts, to my most intimate friends only, of course." (CoS - The Heir of Slytherin)  So, LV *can* be part of Riddle's past - if he's used the name among initimate friends, we can presume it was for at least a few months before he put himself in the diary - and present - because at 16 TR is already calling himself LV.  What he knows of future LV is what he has been told by those writing in his journal: Ginny, Harry, possibly Sr. Malfoy, and, most likley, LV himself added to the memory.
