There is a reason why Jesus' name is spoken during exorcisms and to cleanse a habitat of evil spirits.
That is because Jesus is real.

There's a reason that Allah and Muhammad are brought up five times a day and people die for those two.
It's because Allah and Muhammad are real.
There's a reason the Indians dance for the spirits to cause the rain to fall. It's because the spirits are real.
No, it just means that people really believe in him. And if his name is brought up by people exorcising demons or removing evil spirits, then it means that silly superstitious people really believe in him.
Nope, JC is dead if he ever existed and spirits are are made up, but Janet Moses was real before she died during an exorcism, so was Irina Cornici a 23 year old nun who starved to death during an "exorcism" while chained to a cross. Spirits don't kill people, superstition does!
So hang on, I can make any fictional character real just by using their name in an exorcism?
I EXORCISE THIS KEYBOARD IN THE NAME OF THE DOCTOR.
Gotta run, the TARDIS just landed...
Fuck the exorcism in the first place. Have some fun with it. Why don't they just invoke the one we call The Desolate One. The first of the fallen. The spoiler of virgins. The master of abortions.
Let me help you out of your chair Grandma...

I'll exorcise mine in the name of Eric Northman, thanks ;)
Go right ahead, #1124784 :D In fact, why stop at our keyboards? I exorcise this candle in the name of Dream of the Endless, I exorcise this partially knitted Dalek in the name of Lord Vetinari, I exorcise this lava lamp in the name of Ged...
We can just keep going forever! There are far more objects in the world to exorcise than there are fictional characters we might want to make real.
(Yes, I have a weird collection of things in my desktop environment.)

Yes, there is. It's because the kind of superstitious morons who believe in devils and demons also believe in Jesus and other nonsensical bullshit found in your Bible.
It isn't exactly a quality endorsement.
Cy: Because I demand the universe have some semblance of balance (okay, fine it's because I'm bored and want something to watch), I now have no choice but to exorcise my cat in the name of The Master.
*sit's back to watch the ensuing battle*
So, following your logic, Santa Claus is real because he is spoken of, and is written about in books? Ok!
Hey, I'm real too. Anyone wanna call my name during exorcisms...? Well, you'd better not, I'll come & eat you.
Right, let's just remove and replace the fictional parts of this statement.
There is a reason why Cthulhu's name is spoken during spaghetti dinners, to cleanse a habitat of baby ducks.
That is because Cthulhu is real.
Your statement assumes that everyone cares about your fairytales. I, for one, don't.

There is a reason why the Gumpert Apollo can be caned around the "Top Gear" track in just 1 minute 17.1 seconds:
Some say that his knees are on his face. And he sleeps inside out. All we know is... The Stig is real!

So when people say god's name during orgasm, that proves he's real?
ME: LOL Zeus... no that just means the orgasm was real... - REALLY GOOD. XD!!!
And in some cases... people even fake it.. mostly women. So.. guess that means sometimes God is fake? WOW... what a revelation!

ME: Ill exorcise mine in the name of Eli Brooks from The Girl Next Door movie... then we will go run off together and get married... then have lots of beautiful babies... XD!!!
(WHAT?... Hes hot ok? LOL)
Well, of course the name is real. In the first century, self-styled rabbis named Jesus preaching heresy and performing magic tricks were a sheckle a dozen in Jerusalem and the surrounding area. Quite possibly, one or more of them was mythologized into the fictional character of the same name included in the Bible.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
