Hamlet's father was also named Hamlet. Throughout the play they may refer to them as "Old Hamlet" and "Young Hamlet," or, in the father's case "Denmark" as a reference to his royalty and the country he ruled.

Ophelia's father is Polonius, who is Claudius' advisor. Polonius is killed by Hamlet when he is hiding behind a tapestry, spying on Hamlet as he talks to his mother, Gertrude. After Polonius' death, Ophelia goes mad and eventually dies after she falls from a tree into a brook and drowns.
