@alyssa marvel database (fandom wiki) calls it Earth-199999, most people just don't know it
superhero movies
@Lady yes this is much more reasonable, but apparently it is now officially and canonically universe 616 -_-

@alyssa what’s your source on this?
superhero movies
@Lady dr. strange in the multiverse of madness. to be clear this complaint was me liveblogging the movie lol
tho marvel database also notes «It was later referred to as "Earth-616" or "Universe-616" (and as explained in its foreword "the universe known as 616, also known as the Sacred Timeline") in The Marvel Cinematic Universe: An Official Timeline #1.»

@alyssa i’ve chosen to believe that it is just an alternate timeline where everyone believes they are on Earth-616 even though they actually aren’t, but i think that actually the movies just aren’t consistent with each other, much less the comics
superhero movies
@alyssa yes i think for a time they wanted it to take place in the comic multiverse but then they gave up on that and then decided to just re·use the comic names
