Is his name Ganon or Ganondorf? I've always said the first as a short hand for the second.

Ganondorf is Ganon's human form. Ganon's true form is a beast

Opposite. Ganondorf is the true form, Ganon is when he changes.

I was trying to confirm that before posting but idk if Nintendo has ever definitively clarified it. Here's what the zelda wiki says:

Fandom is... not quite reliable.

Oot revealed his true form. He transforms into Ganon under extreme measures when he unleashes the full power of his triforce.

Its not known why he doesn't revert back in some installments.
