"The rest is silent" were the last words of Hamlet.
He suggests that Shakespeare was prepared for death.
Shakespeare invented a lot more than three words. Some of the ones he did invent are eyeball, assassination and superflux (OK, that last one didn't exactly take off).
Shakespeare's female characters frequently make it to the last act. This is especially true in the comedies, where the last act ends with all of the female characters getting married. As You Like It features a female character, Rosalind, who is the last person on stage. Among the tragedies, female characters do not make it to the last act of Macbeth or Julius Caesar. The female parts in Caesar are only bit parts anyway. Gertrude and Desdemona make it to the last acts of their respective plays only to die in them. Volumnia is instrumental in the last act of Coriolanus, and Lear's daughters make a mass exit in the last act of King Lear. The history plays are more hit-and-miss. The last Act of Henry V, however, is all about Henry and Katherine, and she is there to the end. Basically, just because Lady Macbeth doesn't appear in the last act, you can't draw conclusions about all of Shakespeare's female characters. Remember, Duncan and Banquo don't make it to the last act either.
Shakespeare did not have a middle name. When you translate it from Latin it is William Shakespeare.

We don't know who Caesar spoke to last. Shakespeare said he spoke to Brutus, but the ancient writers claim that he fell silent and covered his head. A good guess is that he spoke to one of the conspirators who pretended to hand him a petition.
