How is Frankenstein not the monster?
This answer is from Wikipedia. It's a very good answer & reason why Frankenstein's monster was never really named : Frankenstein's monster (or Frankenstein's creature) is a fictional character that first appeared in Mary Shelley's novel, Frankenstein, or The Modern Prometheus. In the novel, the creature has no name—a symbol of his parentlessness and lack of human sense of self and identity. He does call himself, when speaking to his creator, Victor Frankenstein, the "Adam of your labours". He is also variously referred to as a "creature," "fiend," "the dæmon," "wretch," "zombie," "devil," "being," and "ogre" in the novel.[1] The monster's namelessness became part of the stage tradition as Mary Shelley's story was adapted into serious and comic plays in London, Paris, and France during the decades after the novel's first appearance. Mary Shelley herself attended a performance of Presumption, the first successful stage adaptation of her novel. "The play bill amused me extremely, for in the list of dramatic personae came, _______ by Mr T. Cooke,” she wrote her friend Leigh Hunt. “This nameless mode of naming the unnameable is rather good.”[2] Into this vacuum, it is understandable that the name of the creator—Frankenstein—would soon be used to name the creation. That mistake was made within the first decade after the novel was published, but it became cast in concrete after the story was popularized in the famous 1930s Universal film series starring Boris Karloff. The film was based largely on a play by Peggy Webling, performed in London in 1927.[3] Curiously, Webling's Frankenstein actually does give his creature his name. The Universal film reverted to the empty cypher, however: the film's credits list the character Karloff plays as a series of question marks. Nevertheless, the creature soon enough became best known in the popular imagination as "Frankenstein".

Wordsworth, Coleridge and Mary Shelley on a beautiful morning took a walk along the sea shore when they came across a portion of 'ribbed sea sand'.

The lovely Elizabeth, adopted by the Frankenstein family, contracted Scarlet Fever. Though Mrs. Frankenstein was made aware of the possible danger to her own health, "when she heard that her favourite was menaced," she continued to care for Elizabeth. Thus she contracted the Scarlet Fever and died while Elizabeth lived and went on to marry Victor only to be killed by the monster later in the novel. You could also say that since Victor's creator died, he- as the creator of the monster- must also die.
