I wouldn't assume the character had a 6 Willpower, that's just your
preconception.
It would be like any character using a mundane weapon, and that can
never effect purely astral beings. And an assensing character couldn't
effect those same beings with flesh bullets any more than he could by
throwing his weapon focus at it.

Ancient cultures believed that names held great power, personal names
more so and they were guarded very closely. To protect themselves, they
answered to another name, because if another discovered their real name,
it could be used against them.
History repeats itself.
