She was actually called Susanna, and she died at the age of 66, likely of an age-related illness.
give me a bunch questions pertaining to this like...Did he have a mental illness that caused him to put strange things into his plays?
We have very little information about Shakespeare's life. We have no reason to believe that he was chronically unhealthy. However, the fact that he retired in an age when just about everyone kept on working until they dropped dead suggests that he may have suffered from an illness in his last years which impaired his ability to work.
Not that we know of specifically. There is some speculation that his retirement from the stage and playwriting was because he was ill, and that he returned to Stratford to die. But that is all speculation. We cannot be sure what he died of even.
Yes! Shakespeare's name was really Shakespeare. His whole name was William Shakespeare.
