hello

i want an explanation for this point

--------------------------------------------

ahmed said "the earth move around the sun " ((direct speak))

ahmed said "what is your name ((direct speak

when we change the first sentence to indirect speak we know that we don't change the verb because it's fact

do we consider the second sentence fact too(( as the name isn't changed and usually it's one all life)) ?? or we change the verb to the past simple
